Learning Probabilistic Models of Contours
We present a methodology for learning spline-based probabilistic models for sets of contours, proposing a new Monte Carlo variant of the EM algorithm to estimate the parameters of...

Reasoning about MDPs as Transformers of Probability Distributions
We consider Markov Decision Processes (MDPs) as transformers on probability distributions, where with respect to a scheduler that resolves nondeterminism, the MDP can be seen as ex...

A Hybrid Approach for Multi-attribute QoS Optimisation in Component Based Software Systems
Design decisions for complex, component-based systems impact multiple quality of service (QoS) properties. Often, means to improve one quality property deteriorate another one. In ...

On Similarity Measures Based on a Refinement Lattice
Abstract. Retrieval of structured cases using similarity has been studied in CBR but there has been less activity on defining similarity on description logics (DL). In this paper w...
