In this paper, we propose two new support vector approaches for ordinal regression, which optimize multiple thresholds to define parallel discriminant hyperplanes for the ordinal ...
Multi-machine scheduling, that is, the assigment of jobs to machines such that certain performance demands like cost and time effectiveness are fulfilled, is a ubiquitous and comp...
The paper is devoted to a brief review of a mathematical theory for the branching variance-reduction technique. The branching technique is an extension of von Neumann’s splittin...
In the near future, there will be increasingly powerful computers in smart cards, telephones, and other information appliances. This will create a massive infrastructure composed ...
In this paper, we propose a new approach for constructing selectively convertible undeniable signature schemes, and present two efficient schemes based on RSA. Our approach allows ...
