Now that the use of garbage collection in languages like Java is becoming widely accepted due to the safety and software engineering benefits it provides, there is significant int...
We deal with the search process of the GraphPlan algorithm in this paper. We concentrate on a problem of finding supports for a sub-goal which arises during the search. We model t...
This paper presents a novel approach for using clickthrough data to learn ranked retrieval functions for web search results. We observe that users searching the web often perform ...
—We show that the rank of a depth-3 circuit (over any field) that is simple, minimal and zero is at most O(k3 log d). The previous best rank bound known was 2O(k2 ) (log d)k−2...
Existing work shows that classic decision trees have inherent deficiencies in obtaining a good probability-based ranking (e.g. AUC). This paper aims to improve the ranking perfor...
