Shaving and constructive disjunction are two main refutation principles used in constraint programming. The shaving principle allows us to compute the singleton arc-consistency (SA...
A linear pseudo-Boolean constraint (LPB) is an expression of the form a1 · 1 + . . . + am · m ≥ d, where each i is a literal (it assumes the value 1 or 0 depending on whether a...
Abstract. Model-based image interpretation extracts high-level information from images using a priori knowledge about the object of interest. The computational challenge is to dete...
Representative-based clustering algorithms are quite popular due to their relative high speed and because of their sound theoretical foundation. On the other hand, the clusters the...
Macroprogramming—the technique of specifying the behavior of the system, as opposed to the constituent nodes—provides application developers with high level abstractions that a...
