IP problems characterise combinatorial optimisation problems where conventional numerical methods based on the hill-climbing technique can not be directly applied. Conventional me...
The classical probabilistic models attempt to capture the Ad hoc information retrieval problem within a rigorous probabilistic framework. It has long been recognized that the prim...
This paper presents a new approach for spatial event prediction that combines a value function approximation algorithm and case-based reasoning predictors. Each of these predictors...
—The particle swarm optimizer (PSO) is a popular computing technique of swarm intelligence, known for its fast convergence speed and easy implementation. All the particles in the...
We explore automated discovery of topicallycoherent segments in speech or text sequences. We give two new discriminative topic segmentation algorithms which employ a new measure o...
