Abstract. This paper focuses on Active Learning with a limited number of queries; in application domains such as Numerical Engineering, the size of the training set might be limite...
Abstract. Variable elimination is the basic step of Adaptive Consistency 4 . It transforms the problem into an equivalent one, having one less variable. Unfortunately, there are ma...
Abstract. In recent years we have seen an increasing interest in combining constraint satisfaction problem (CSP) formulations and linear programming (LP) based techniques for solvi...
Abstract. This paper reconsiders the deployment of synchronous optical networks (SONET), an optimization problem naturally expressed in terms of set variables. Earlier approaches, ...
The selection of weak classifiers is critical to the success of boosting techniques. Poor weak classifiers do not perform better than random guess, thus cannot help decrease the t...
