Scheduling query execution plans is a particularly complex problem in hierarchical parallel systems, where each site consists of a collection of local time-shared (e.g., CPU(s) or...
Image-based representations of an object profit from known geometry. The more accurate this geometry is known, the better corresponding pixels in the different images can be align...
The application of spectral methods to the software clustering problem has the advantage of producing results that are within a known factor of the optimal solution. Heuristic sea...

The paper describes a new approach using a Conditional Random Fields (CRFs) to extract physical and logical layouts in unconstrained handwritten letters such as those sent by indi...
We present a new polynomial-space algorithm, called Adopt, for distributed constraint optimization (DCOP). DCOP is able to model a large class of collaboration problems in multi-a...
