Optimum implementation of non-conventional wells allows us to increase considerably hydrocarbon recovery. By considering the high drilling cost and the potential improvement in we...
: The paper presents results on the runtime complexity of two ant colony optimization (ACO) algorithms: Ant System, the oldest ACO variant, and GBAS, the first ACO variant for whic...
We propose a method to train a cascade of classifiers by simultaneously optimizing all its stages. The approach relies on the idea of optimizing soft cascades. In particular, inst...
We introduce a model class for statistical learning which is based on mixtures of propositional rules. In our mixture model, the weight of a rule is not uniform over the entire ins...
This paper is concerned with the problem of computing a discretecoefficient approximation to a digital filter. In contrast to earlier works that have approached this problem usi...
