In the single rent-to-buy decision problem, without a priori knowledge of the amount of time a resource will be used we need to decide when to buy the resource, given that we can ...
This paper proposes an approach for the automatic recognition of roles in settings like news and talk-shows, where roles correspond to specific functions like Anchorman, Guest or ...
We discuss how phase-transitions may be detected in computationally hard problems in the context of anytime algorithms. Treating the computational time, value and utility functions...
In recent years analysis of complexity of learning Gaussian mixture models from sampled data has received significant attention in computational machine learning and theory commun...
The rich dependency structure found in the columns of real-world relational databases can be exploited to great advantage, but can also cause query optimizers--which usually assum...
