Modularity is one of the most important properties of a software design, with significant impact on changeability and evolvability. However, a formalized and automated approach i...
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...
Most discrete-event simulation models have stochastic elements that mimic the probabilistic nature of the system under consideration. A close match between the input model and the...
Abstract. The today's applications usually form a system of sub-applications, each being responsible for a particular functionality. Hence, the design and maintenance of such ...
