The community of multi-agent systems has been studying ways to improve the selection of partner agents for joint action. One of such approaches consists in estimating the trustwort...
—Stability (robustness) of feature selection methods is a topic of recent interest, yet often neglected importance, with direct impact on the reliability of machine learning syst...
The choice of the selection method used in an evolutionary algorithm may have considerable impacts on the behavior of the entire algorithm. Therefore, earlier work was devoted to t...
We evaluate server selection methods in a Web environment, modeling a digital library which makes use of existing Web search servers rather than building its own index. The evalua...
Multiple Description (MD) and Layered Coding (LC) are two source-coding approaches proposed for adaptive and robust video streaming over lossy networks. Both streaming methods aim...
The TREC .GOV collection makes a valuable web testbed for distributed information retrieval methods because it is naturally partitioned and includes 725 web-oriented queries with ...
This paper focuses on question selection methods for conversational recommender systems. We consider a scenario, where given an initial user query, the recommender system may ask ...
— We propose a new annealing method for the hyperparameters of several recent Learning Vector Quantization algorithms. We first analyze the relationship between values assigned ...
