We introduce quotient graphs for modeling neutrality in evolutionary search. We demonstrate that for a variety of evolutionary computing problems, search can be characterized by g...
Capacity addition and withdrawal decisions are among the most important strategic decisions made by …rms in oligopolistic industries. In this paper, we develop and analyze a ful...

This paper proposes a general probabilistic framework for shape-based modeling and classification of waveform data. A segmental hidden Markov model (HMM) is used to characterize w...
We study the dynamics of information propagation in environments of low-overhead personal publishing, using a large collection of weblogs over time as our example domain. We chara...

Adaptation techniques based on importance weighting were shown effective for RankSVM and RankNet, viz., each training instance is assigned a target weight denoting its importance ...
