— In this paper, we address an optimization problem that arises in context of cache placement in sensor networks. In particular, we consider the cache placement problem where the...
We introduce a cost model for the M-tree access method [Ciaccia et al., 1997] which provides estimates of CPU (distance computations) and I/O costs for the execution of similarity ...
Imitation represents a powerful approach for programming and autonomous learning in robot and computer systems. An important aspect of imitation is the mapping of observations to ...
We propose a low cost method for the correction of the output of OCR engines through the use of human labor. The method employs an error estimator neural network that learns to as...
Abstract. We develop for set cover games several general cost-sharing methods that are approximately budget-balanced, core, and/or group-strategyproof. We first study the cost sha...
