A biometric system for user authentication produces a matching score representing the degree of similarity of the input biometry with the set of templates for that user. If the sc...
When applying the 2-opt heuristic to the travelling salesman problem, selecting the best improvement at each iteration gives worse results on average than selecting the first impr...
Abstract— We study the impact of interferences on the connectivity of large-scale ad-hoc networks, using percolation theory. We assume that a bi-directional connection can be set...
In this paper, the performances of the NEW Unconstrained Optimization Algorithm (NEWUOA) on some noiseless functions are compared to those of the BI-POPulation Covariance Matrix A...
In analyzing polyphonic signals, the handling of overlapping partials is one important problem. The assumptions usually made for partial overlaps are the additivity of the linear ...
