Quorum systems are a mechanism for obtaining fault-tolerance and efficient distributed systems. We consider geographic quorum systems; a geographic quorum system is a partition of...
In this paper we propose a novel method for learning a Mahalanobis distance measure to be used in the KNN classification algorithm. The algorithm directly maximizes a stochastic v...

— In this contribution a feature selection method in semi-supervised problems is proposed. This method selects variables using a feature clustering strategy, using a combination ...
Abstract. Conversational recommender systems adapt the sets of products they recommend in light of user feedback. Our contribution here is to devise and compare four different mec...
The time required to simulate a complete benchmark program using the cycle-accurate model of a microprocessor can be prohibitively high. One of the proposed methodologies, represe...
