Multiplicative update algorithms have encountered a great success to solve optimization problems with non-negativity constraints, such as the famous non-negative matrix factorizat...
Heuristics are an increasingly popular solution method for combinatorial optimization problems. Heuristic use often frees the modeler from some of the restrictions placed on class...
The tree structure has received much interest as a versatile architecture for a large class of parallel processing applications. Spanning trees in particular are essential tools f...
Effective, real-time training of health care professionals in invasive procedures is a challenging task. Furthermore, assessing in practice the acquisition of the dexterity and sk...
