This is a theoretical study on the minimizers of cost-functions composed of an ℓ2 data-fidelity term and a possibly nonsmooth or nonconvex regularization term acting on the di...
Knowledge acquisition (KA) plays an important role in building knowledge based systems (KBS). However, evaluating different KA techniques has been difficult because of the costs...
The FFLAS project has established that exact matrix multiplication over finite fields can be performed at the speed of the highly optimized numerical BLAS routines. Since many a...
Margin maximizing properties play an important role in the analysis of classi£cation models, such as boosting and support vector machines. Margin maximization is theoretically in...
In this paper we deal with the problem of finding an optimal query execution plan in database systems. We improve the analysis of a polynomial-time approximation algorithm due to M...
