On Applying Unit Propagation-Based Lower Bounds in Pseudo-Boolean Optimization
Unit propagation-based (UP) lower bounds are used in the vast majority of current Max-SAT solvers. However, lower bounds based on UP have seldom been applied in PseudoBoolean Opti...

A First-Order Bayesian Tool for Probabilistic Ontologies
One of the major weaknesses of current research on the Semantic Web (SW) is the lack of proper means to represent and reason with uncertainty. A number of recent efforts from the ...

A New Approach to Model-Based Diagnosis Using Probabilistic Logic
We describe a new approach to model construction using transfer function diagrams that are consequently mapped into generalized loopy logic, a first-order, Turing-complete stochas...

Evolutionary Learning of Dynamic Naive Bayesian Classifiers
Naive Bayesian classifiers work well in data sets with independent attributes. However, they perform poorly when the attributes are dependent or when there are one or more irrelev...

A Backward Adjusting Strategy and Optimization of the C4.5 Parameters to Improve C4.5's Performance
In machine learning, decision trees are employed extensively in solving classification problems. In order to design a decision tree classifier two main phases are employed. The fi...

Unsupervised Approach for Selecting Sentences in Query-based Summarization
When a user is served with a ranked list of relevant documents by the standard document search engines, his search task is usually not over. He has to go through the entire docume...
