—A novel framework is proposed for the design of cost-sensitive boosting algorithms. The framework is based on the identification of two necessary conditions for optimal cost-sen...
This paper describes a practical solution for the incorporation of security services in agents. From a set of basic user requirements, the agents will be able to find out the best ...
A new approach to multichannel image compression is introduced where the intra- and cross-band correlations are jointly exploited in a surprisingly simple yet very effective manner...
We consider complex scheduling problems that can be captured as optimization under hard and soft constraints. The objective of such an optimization problem is to satisfy as many h...
Abstract. In this paper, we examine the problem of choosing discriminatory prices for customers with probabilistic valuations and a seller with indistinguishable copies of a good. ...
