This paper addresses the efficient processing of top-k queries in wide-area distributed data repositories where the index lists for the attribute values (or text terms) of a query...

Abstract. This work considers the problem of approximating fixed predicate constraint satisfaction problems (MAX k-CSP(P)). We show that if the set of assignments accepted by P co...
In this paper we address the problem of coordination in multi-agent sequential decision problems with infinite statespaces. We adopt a game theoretic formalism to describe the int...
The scope of the well-known k-means algorithm has been
broadly extended with some recent results: first, the k-
means++ initialization method gives some approximation
guarantees...
Abstract. Computation time is an important performance characteristic of computer vision algorithms. This paper shows how existing (slow) binary-valued decision algorithms can be a...
