Instances of the futile questioning problem abound in applications, especially, in the area of artificial intelligence. The problem can be represented by a particular quantified ...
We use the concept of conditional mutual information (MI) to approach problems involving the selection of variables in the area of medical diagnosis. Computing MI requires estimate...
Higher order energy functions have the ability to encode
high level structural dependencies between pixels, which
have been shown to be extremely powerful for image labeling

Motivated by the performance improvements made to SAT solvers in recent years, a number of different encodings of constraints into SAT have been proposed. Concrete examples are th...
We present algebraic conditions on constraint languages Γ that ensure the hardness of the constraint satisfaction problem CSP(Γ) for complexity classes L, NL, P, NP and ModpL. Th...
