— This paper proposes a high-level Reinforcement Learning (RL) control system for solving the action selection problem of an autonomous robot. Although the dominant approach, whe...
In this paper, we review parallel search techniques for approximating the global optimal solution of combinatorial optimization problems. Recent developments on parallel implementa...

We study a new variant of colored orthogonal range searching problem: given a query rectangle Q all colors c, such that at least a fraction of all points in Q are of color c, mus...
Although the issue of approximate text retrieval is gaining importance in the last years, it is currently addressed by only a few indexing schemes. To reduce space requirements, t...
Existing distributed hash tables provide efficient mechanisms for storing and retrieving a data item based on an exact key, but are unsuitable when the search key is similar, but ...
