— Since the Estimation of Distribution Algorithms (EDAs) have been introduced, several single model based EDAs and mixture model based EDAs have been developed. Take Gaussian mod...
This paper describes a program, called NEWTON, that finds approximate symbolic solutions to parameterized equations in one variable. N E W T O N derives an initial approximation b...
In this paper we present a method for the integration of nonlinear holonomic constraints in deformable models and its application to the problems of shape and illuminant direction...
Database columns are often correlated, so that cardinality estimates computed by assuming independence often lead to a poor choice of query plan by the optimizer. Multidimensional...
