—In this paper we extend our previous work on soft probabilistic contracts for QoS management, from the particular case of “response time”, to general QoS parameters. Our stu...
This work presents an image analysis framework driven by emerging evidence and constrained by the semantics expressed in an ontology. Human perception, apart from visual stimulus a...
Abstract. Using a probabilistic polynomial-time process calculus designed for specifying security properties as observational equivalences, we develop a form of bisimulation that j...

Two main issues arise when working in the area of texture segmentation: the need to describe the texture accurately by capturing its underlying structure, and the need to perform ...
Hybrid Probabilistic Programs (HPPs) are logic programs that allow the programmer to explicitly encode his knowledge of the dependencies between events being described in the prog...
