In many Web search applications, similarities between objects of one type (say, queries) can be affected by the similarities between their interrelated objects of another type (sa...
Several population-based methods (with origins in the world of evolutionary strategies and estimation-of-distribution algorithms) for black-box optimization in continuous domains ...
The similarity search has become a fundamental computational task in many applications. One of the mathematical models of the similarity – the metric space – has drawn attenti...
The task of similarity search in image databases has been studied for decades, while there have been many feature extraction techniques proposed. Among the mass of low-level techni...
For half a century since computers came into existence, the goal of finding elegant and efficient algorithms to solve "simple" (welldefined and well-structured) problems ...
