Markov decision processes (MDPs) are controllable discrete event systems with stochastic transitions. The payoff received by the controller can be evaluated in different ways, dep...
Existing retrieval models generally do not offer any guarantee for optimal retrieval performance. Indeed, it is even difficult, if not impossible, to predict a model’s empirica...
GC-sets are subsets T of Rd of cardinality dim Πn for which, for each τ ∈ T, there are n hyperplanes whose union contains all of T except for τ, thus making interpolation to a...
Functional labels provide a simple but very reusable way for defining the functionality of a system and for making use of that knowledge. Unlike more complex functional representa...
Abstract. Many interesting problems in computer vision can be formulated as a minimization problem for an energy functional. If this functional is given as an integral of a scalar-...
