A message digest is a fixed length output produced by applying a cryptographic algorithm on input binary data of arbitrary length. If the input data changes even by one bit, the g...
Most connectionist research has focused on learning mappings from one space to another (eg. classification and regression). This paper introduces the more general task of learnin...
Finding intensional encapsulations of database subsets is the inverse of query evaluation. Whereas query evaluation transforms an intensional expression (the query) to its extensi...
Over-constrained problems can be solved with the help of soft constraints. Weighted constraints are a typical representation of soft constraints used to minimize weights of unsati...
In the process of developing an Information System, one passes through stages that include requirements gathering, design specification, and software implementation. The purpose ...
