Given a set of records, a threshold value t and a similarity function, we investigate the problem of finding all pairs of records such that similarity between each pair is above t....
We study the behavior of the classical A∗ search algorithm when coupled with a heuristic that provides estimates, accurate to within a small multiplicative factor, of the distan...
Approximate linear programming (ALP) offers a promising framework for solving large factored Markov decision processes (MDPs) with both discrete and continuous states. Successful ...
In this paper we deal with the problem of the relationship between the equipotency defined as a consequence of a given definition of scalar cardinality of a fuzzy set and the exis...
In packet switches, packets queue at switch inputs and contend for outputs. The contention arbitration policy directly affects switch performance. The best policy depends on the c...
