We present a new method for multi-object segmentation in a maximum a posteriori estimation framework. Our method is motivated by the observation that neighboring or coupling objec...
The Tree-of-Hubs Location Problem is studied. This problem, which combines several aspects of some location, network design and routing problems, is inspired by those transportati...
Much of the literature on symmetry reductions for model checking assumes a simple model of computation where the local state of each component in a concurrent system can be repres...
The aggregation of conflicting preferences is a central problem in multiagent systems. The key difficulty is that the agents may report their preferences insincerely. Mechanism de...
This paper introduces AntNet, a novel approach to the adaptive learning of routing tables in communications networks. AntNet is a distributed, mobile agents based Monte Carlo syst...
