Both semantic and type-based query optimization rely on the idea that queries often exhibit non-trivial rewritings if the state space of the database is restricted. Despite their ...

We present a new algorithm, called incremental least squares policy iteration (ILSPI), for finding the infinite-horizon stationary policy for partially observable Markov decision ...
Given an undirected n-node graph and a set C of m cuts, the minimum crossing tree is a spanning tree which minimizes the maximum crossing of any cut in C, where the crossing of a c...
We develop a multi-class object detection framework whose core component is a nearest neighbor search over object part classes. The performance of the overall system is critically...
Massively parallel computing systems are being built with thousands of nodes. Because of the high number of components, it is critical to keep these systems running even in the pre...
