This paper introduces dual decomposition as a framework for deriving inference algorithms for NLP problems. The approach relies on standard dynamic-programming algorithms as oracl...

We study the Sherali-Adams lift-and-project hierarchy of linear programming relaxations of the matching polytope. Our main result is an asymptotically tight expression 1 + 1/k for...
Abstract. This article deals with global constraints for which the set of solutions can be recognized by an extended finite automaton whose size is bounded by a polynomial in n, w...
The specification of the Java Memory Model (JMM) is phrased in terms of acceptors of execution sequences rather than the standard generative view of operational semantics. This cre...
Constraint-Based Testing (CBT) is the process of generating test cases against a testing objective by using constraint solving techniques. In CBT, testing objectives are given und...
