Probabilistic model building methods can render difficult problems feasible by identifying and exploiting dependencies. They build a probabilistic model from the statistical prope...
Deduplication is a key operation in integrating data from multiple sources. The main challenge in this task is designing a function that can resolve when a pair of records refer t...
—Temperature has a strong influence on integrated circuit (IC) performance, power consumption, and reliability. However, accurate thermal analysis can impose high computation co...
— This paper presents a single-objective and a multiobjective stochastic optimization algorithms for global training of neural networks based on simulated annealing. The algorith...
We propose a variation of the standard genetic algorithm that incorporates social interaction between the individuals in the population. Our goal is to understand the evolutionary...
