Geometric particle swarm optimization (GPSO) is a recently introduced generalization of traditional particle swarm optimization (PSO) that applies to all combinatorial spaces. The...
Surprisingly, general search heuristics often solve combinatorial problems quite sufficiently, although they do not outperform specialized algorithms. Here, the behavior of simple...
This paper introduces a clever way of computing inner products between images in order to drastically reduce the computational complexity of fitting appearance models to images. T...
Dimension attributes in data warehouses are typically hierarchical (e.g., geographic locations in sales data, URLs in Web traffic logs). OLAP tools are used to summarize the measu...
The popularity of mobile devices has propelled the development of many useful location-aware applications. However, the heterogeneity of mobile devices necessitates that the softw...
