We present a new hybrid algorithm for local search in distributed combinatorial optimization. This method is a mix between classical local search methods in which nodes take decis...
DTDs are continuously updated according to changes of the real world. Let t be an XML document valid against a DTD D, and suppose that D is updated by an update script s. In gener...
Probabilistic inference algorithms for belief updating, nding the most probable explanation, the maximum a posteriori hypothesis, and the maximum expected utility are reformulated...
Living cells are the product of gene expression programs that involve the regulated transcription of thousands of genes. The elucidation of transcriptional regulatory networks in ...
We propose a rigorous definition of the notion of typicality, making use of the strict partial order naturally induced among the objects at hand by a given concept. This perspecti...
