With the help of index functions, we re-derive the ML(n)BiCGStab algorithm in [35] in a more systematic way. There are n ways to define the ML(n)BiCGStab residual vector. Each diff...
Abstract. We study here fundamental issues involved in top-k query evaluation in probabilistic databases. We consider simple probabilistic databases in which probabilities are asso...
In this paper we introduce a novel method to address minimization of static and dynamic MRFs. Our approach is based on principles from linear programming and, in particular, on pr...
A detailed study on the design of decentralized Receding Horizon Control (RHC) schemes for decoupled systems is presented. An optimal control problem is formulated for a set of de...
A nonlinear dynamic model for the quotes issued by Nasdaq dealers is considered, focussing on the top two Electronic Communication Networks (ECNs), Island and Instinet, and the th...
