Abstract. One of the most frequently used inference services of description logic reasoners classifies all named classes of OWL ontologies into a subsumption hierarchy. Due to emer...
Face recognition algorithms need to deal with variable
lighting conditions. Near infrared (NIR) image based face
recognition technology has been proposed to effectively
overcome...
A new stochastic method for locating the global minimum of a multidimensional function inside a rectangular hyperbox is presented. A sampling technique is employed that makes use ...
A new stochastic clustering algorithm is introduced that aims to locate all the local minima of a multidimensional continuous and differentiable function inside a bounded domain. ...
Software modifications are often systematic—they consist of similar, but not identical, program changes to multiple contexts. Existing tools for systematic program transformati...
