This talk deals with advanced concepts of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Pattern Recognition (PR), and their applications to solving real life problems including biometrics appl...
In this paper we propose a utility model that accounts for both sales and branding advertisers. We first study the computational complexity of optimization problems related to bo...
In many text-processing applications, we would like shapes that expand (or shrink) in size to fit their textual content. We address how to efficiently compute the minimum size fo...
The design of a large component-based software system typically involves the composition of different components. Instead of relying on a free composition of components, we advoca...
We address the problem of lowering the buyer’s expected payments in shortest path auctions, where the buyer’s goal is to purchase a path in a graph in which edges are owned by...
