The Open-Shop Problem is a hard problem that can be solved using Constraint Programming or Operation Research methods. Existing techniques are efficient at reducing the search tree...
The Prover/Delayer game is a combinatorial game that can be used to prove upper and lower bounds on the size of Tree Resolution proofs, and also perfectly characterizes the space ...
Abstract. This work describes an evolutionary approach to texture segmentation, a long-standing and important problem in computer vision. The difficulty of the problem can be relat...
This paper introduces the concept of a critical backbone as a minimal set of variables or part of the solution necessary to be within the basin of attraction of the global optimum...
In reinforcement learning problems, an agent has the task of learning a good or optimal strategy from interaction with his environment. At the start of the learning task, the agent...
