In this paper we present a new document representation model based on implicit user feedback obtained from search engine queries. The main objective of this model is to achieve be...
The max k-armed bandit problem is a recently-introduced online optimization problem with practical applications to heuristic search. Given a set of k slot machines, each yielding p...
This paper proposes the use of empirical modeling techniques for building microarchitecture sensitive models for compiler optimizations. The models we build relate program perform...

We focus on the handling of overlapping solutions in evolutionary multiobjective optimization (EMO) algorithms. First we show that there exist a large number of overlapping soluti...
Different buyers exhibit different purchasing behaviors. Some rush to purchase new products while others tend to be more cautious, waiting for reviews from people they trust. In...
