Most question answering (QA) and information retrieval (IR) systems are insensitive to different users' needs and preferences, and also to the existence of multiple, complex ...
Silicon technology will continue to provide an exponential increase in the availability of raw transistors. Effectively translating this resource into application performance, how...

Question answering systems are complex systems using natural language processing. Some evaluation campaigns are organized to evaluate such systems in order to propose a classifica...
Many intractable problems such as NP-complete problems (provided P = NP) have easy subproblems. In contrast, we investigate the existence and the properties of inherently hard sub...
Two-way alternating automata were introduced by Vardi in order to study the satisfiability problem for the modal µ-calculus extended with backwards modalities. In this paper, we ...
