Reinforcement Learning with Soft State Aggregation
It is widely accepted that the use of more compact representations than lookup tables is crucial to scaling reinforcement learning (RL) algorithms to real-world problems. Unfortun...

Crossing Numbers of Graphs with Rotation Systems
We show that computing the crossing number and the odd crossing number of a graph with a given rotation system is NP-complete. As a consequence we can show that many of the well-k...

Nearest-Neighbor Search on a Time Budget via Max-Margin Trees
Many high-profile applications pose high-dimensional nearest-neighbor search problems. Yet, it still remains difficult to achieve fast query times for state-of-the-art approache...

Progressive Keyword Search in Relational Databases
A common approach to performing keyword search over relational databases is to find the minimum Steiner trees in database graphs. These methods, however, are rather expensive as th...

Deterministic Annealing for Unsupervised Texture Segmentation
Abstract. In this paper a rigorous mathematical framework of deterministic annealing and mean-field approximation is presented for a general class of partitioning, clustering and ...
