Pattern Learning for Relation Extraction with a Hierarchical Topic Model
We describe the use of a hierarchical topic model for automatically identifying syntactic and lexical patterns that explicitly state ontological relations. We leverage distant sup...

Scaling up Heuristic Planning with Relational Decision Trees
Current evaluation functions for heuristic planning are expensive to compute. In numerous planning problems these functions provide good guidance to the solution, so they are wort...

The LAMA Planner: Guiding Cost-Based Anytime Planning with Landmarks
LAMA is a classical planning system based on heuristic forward search. Its core feature is the use of a pseudo-heuristic derived from landmarks, propositional formulas that must b...

Heuristic algorithms for multiconstrained quality-of-service routing
Multiconstrained quality-of-service (QoS) routing deals with finding routes that satisfy multiple independent QoS constraints. This problem is NP-hard. In this paper, two heuristic...
