Studying the association between quantitative phenotype (such as height or weight) and single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) is an important problem in biology. To understand und...
Designing technical plants is a complex and demanding process. It has been shown that the optimization of the simple facility placement problem is already NP-hard. Optimization of...
We present a new, statistical approach to rule learning. Doing so, we address two of the problems inherent in traditional rule learning: The computational hardness of finding rule...
We address in this paper the problem of scheduling for multiprocessor real-time systems with hard and soft tasks. Utility functions are associated to soft tasks to capture their r...
In this paper we consider the problem of actively learning the mean values of distributions associated with a finite number of options (arms). The algorithms can select which opti...
