In this research, we propose to use the discrete cosine transform to approximate the cumulative distributions of data cube cells' values. The cosine transform is known to have...
So far, an efficient similarity search in multimedia databases has been carried out by metric access methods (MAMs), where the utilized similarity measure had to satisfy the metric...
The computation of the first complete approximations of game-theoretic optimal strategies for fullscale poker is addressed. Several abstraction techniques are combined to represe...

We propose a new approach to value-directed belief state approximationfor POMDPs. The valuedirected model allows one to choose approximation methods for belief state monitoringtha...
Fat conic section and fat conic spline are defined. With well established properties of fat conic splines, the problem of approximating a ruled surface by a tangent smooth cone sp...
