This paper introduces a set object, namely a shared object that allows processes to add and remove values as well as take a snapshot of its content. A new consistency condition su...
We present a problem of factor analysis of three-way binary data, i.e. data described by a 3-dimensional binary matrix I, describing a relationship between objects, attributes, an...
The problem of designing workforce shifts and break patterns is a relevant employee scheduling problem that arises in many contexts, especially in service industries. The issue is ...
We describe an algorithm for clustering using a similarity graph. The algorithm (a) runs in O(n log3 n + m log n) time on graphs with n vertices and m edges, and (b) with high pro...
We study the problem of uncertainty in the entries of the Kernel matrix, arising in SVM formulation. Using Chance Constraint Programming and a novel large deviation inequality we ...
