Given a scene consisting of objects, ray shooting queries answer with the first object encountered by a given ray, and are used in ray tracing and radiosity for rendering photo-r...
Boosting is a general method for improving the accuracy of learning algorithms. We use boosting to construct improved privacy-preserving synopses of an input database. These are da...
Keeping students alert and responsive during lectures is a challenge even for experienced teachers in small group settings. Research has shown the importance of student participat...
This paper presents a novel evolutionary approach of approximating the shape of the Pareto-optimal set of multi-objective optimization problems. The evolutionary algorithm (EA) use...
