We study the problem of query optimization in federated relational database systems. The nature of federated databases explicitly decouples many aspects of the optimization proces...
Deterministic optimization approaches have been well developed and widely used in the process industry to accomplish off-line and on-line process optimization. The challenging tas...
Where does the sparsity in image signals come from? Local and nonlocal image models have supplied complementary views toward the regularity in natural images the former attempts t...
We survey some of the methods used for manipulating, representing, and optimizing multi-valued logic with the view of both building a better understanding of the more specialized ...
We present the first hardware-in-the-loop evolutionary optimization on an ornithopter. Our experiments demonstrate the feasibility of evolving flight through genetic algorithms an...
