Abstract. Recent works have shown the advantage of using Active Learning methods, such as the Query by Committee (QBC) algorithm, to various learning problems. This class of Algori...
Let I be a random 3CNF formula generated by choosing a truth assignment for variables x1, . . . , xn uniformly at random and including every clause with i literals set true by w...
We describe a simple randomized construction for generating pairs of hash functions h1, h2 from a universe U to ranges V = [m] = {0, 1, . . . , m - 1} and W = [m] so that for ever...
— In this paper we present a new nature-inspired variation operator for binary encodings in genetic algorithms (GAs). Our method, called implicit alternative splicing (iAS), is r...
Network structure construction and global state maintenance are expensive in large-scale, dynamic peer-to-peer (p2p) networks. With inherent topology independence and low state mai...
