A key challenge in applying kernel-based methods for discriminative learning is to identify a suitable kernel given a problem domain. Many methods instead transform the input data...
In this article, a hybrid optimization method has been proposed consisting of modified ant colony systems (ACSs) and constrained nonlinear programming (NLP) to solve the problems ...
While a typical software component has a clearly specified (static) interface in terms of the methods and the input/output types they support, information about the correct sequen...
This paper introduces the XTR public key system. XTR is based on a new method to represent elements of a subgroup of a multiplicative group of a finite field. Application of XTR ...
This paper deals with aggregation operators. A new class of aggregation operators, called asymptotically idempotent, is introduced. A generalization of the basic notion of aggregat...
