We consider an optimization problem of finding the best possible offspring as a result of a recombination operator in an evolutionary algorithm, given two parent solutions. The op...
We present a flexible new optimization framework for finding effective, reliable pseudo-relevance feedback models that unifies existing complementary approaches in a principled wa...
Abstract--In this paper, we present demand-side energy management under real-time demand-response pricing as a task scheduling problem which is NP-hard. Using minmax as the objecti...

RANK AGGREGATION is important in many areas ranging from web search over databases to bioinformatics. The underlying decision problem KEMENY SCORE is NP-complete even in case of fo...
Machine involvement has the potential to speed up language documentation. We assess this potential with timed annotation experiments that consider annotator expertise, example sel...
