Distributed computing on heterogeneous nodes, or grid computing, provides a substantial increase in computational power available for many applications. This paper reports our expe...
I consider the problem of finding all the modes of a mixture of multivariate Gaussian distributions, which has applications in clustering and regression. I derive exact formulas f...
The distribution of fitness values across a set of states sharply influences the dynamics of evolutionary processes and heuristic search in combinatorial optimization. In this p...
Broad web search engines as well as many more specialized search tools rely on web crawlers to acquire large collections of pages for indexing and analysis. Such a web crawler may...
