In this paper, the global optimization problem with an objective function that is multiextremal that satisfies the Lipschitz condition over a hypercube is considered. An algorithm...
Abstract. This paper introduces a generalization of the nvalue constraint that bounds the number of distinct values taken by a set of variables.The generalized constraint (called n...
Food recognition is difficult because food items are deformable objects that exhibit significant variations in appearance. We believe the key to recognizing food is to exploit the...

Histogram-based techniques are commonly used in image retrieval ranging from basic color histograms to sophisticated histograms of various local feature vectors. Our approach cons...
Abstract. To meet the new, more sophisticated needs of decision makers, a new generation of BI systems is emerging. In this paper we focus on two enabling technologies for this new...
