Stochastic Local Search (SLS) is quite effective for a variety of Combinatorial (Optimization) Problems (COP). However, the performance of SLS depends on several factors and getti...
Abstract— The localization problem is to determine an assignment of coordinates to nodes in a wireless ad-hoc or sensor network that is consistent with measured pairwise node dis...

This article presents a method aiming at quantifying the visual similarity between two images. This kind of problem is recurrent in many applications such as object recognition, i...
In typical classification tasks, we seek a function which assigns a label to a single object. Kernel-based approaches, such as support vector machines (SVMs), which maximize the ...
GSAT is a randomized greedy local repair procedure that was introduced for solving propositional satis ability and constraint satisfaction problems. We present an improvement to G...
