In this paper, we address the problem of vectorization of binary images on irregular isothetic grids. The representation of graphical elements by lines is common in document analys...
A flow on a directed network is said to be confluent if the flow uses at most one outgoing arc at each node. Confluent flows arise naturally from destination-based routing. We stud...
Developing dispatching rules for manufacturing systems is a tedious process, which is time- and cost-consuming. Since there is no good general rule for different scenarios and ob...
A novel approach to integrating case-based reasoning with model-based diagnosis is presented. The main idea is to use the model of the device and the results of diagnostic tests t...
We study the power of nonadaptive quantum query algorithms, which are algorithms whose queries to the input do not depend on the result of previous queries. First, we show that an...
