On the Existence of Linear Weak Learners and Applications to Boosting
We consider the existence of a linear weak learner for boosting algorithms. A weak learner for binary classification problems is required to achieve a weighted empirical error on t...

Getting Prime Cuts from Skylines over Partially Ordered Domains
: Skyline queries have recently received a lot of attention due to their intuitive query formulation: users can state preferences with respect to several attributes. Unlike numeric...

Fractional Kernels in Digraphs
The aim of this note is to point out some combinatorial applications of a lemma of Scarf, proved first in the context of game theory. The usefulness of the lemma in combinatorics...

Combinatorics with definable sets: Euler characteristics and Grothendieck rings
We recall the notions of weak and strong Euler characteristics on a first order structure and make explicit the notion of a Grothendieck ring of a structure. We define partially or...

On Programs with Linearly Ordered Multiple Preferences
The extended answer set semantics for logic programs allows for the defeat of rules to resolve contradictions. We propose a refinement of these semantics based on a preference rel...
