The automated planning community has traditionally focused on the efficient synthesis of plans given a complete domain theory. In the past several years, this line of work met wi...
Recent years have seen a growing interest in research into patent retrieval. One of the key issues in conducting information retrieval (IR) research is meaningful evaluation of the...
In this paper, we propose an extension of three incomplete depthfirst search techniques, namely depth-bounded backtrack search, credit search, and iterative broadening, towards pr...
A Distributed Constraint Optimization Problem (DCOP) is a fundamental problem that can formalize various applications related to multi-agent cooperation. Since it is NP-hard, consi...
We consider the problem of evaluating retrieval systems using incomplete judgment information. Buckley and Voorhees recently demonstrated that retrieval systems can be efficiently...
