Belief functions and default reasoning
We present a new approach to dealing with default information based on the theory of belief functions. Our semantic structures, inspired by Adams' -semantics, are epsilon-beli...

Hydrophobic collapse in (in silico) protein folding
A model of hydrophobic collapse, which is treated as the driving force for protein folding, is presented. This model is the superposition of three models commonly used in protein ...

Using Temporal Neighborhoods to Adapt Function Approximators in Reinforcement Learning
To avoid the curse of dimensionality, function approximators are used in reinforcement learning to learn value functions for individual states. In order to make better use of comp...

Efficient top-k processing over query-dependent functions
We study the efficient evaluation of top-k queries over data items, where the score of each item is dynamically computed by applying an item-specific function whose parameter valu...

A Combinatorial Algorithm Minimizing Submodular Functions in Strongly Polynomial Time
We give a strongly polynomial-time algorithm minimizing a submodular function f given by a value-giving oracle. The algorithm does not use the ellipsoid method or any other linear ...
