We investigate the construction of linear operators representing the semantics of probabilistic programming languages expressed via probabilistic transition systems. Finite transi...
XML schema design has two opposing goals: elimination of update anomalies requires that the schema be as normalized as possible; yet higher query performance and simpler query exp...

Using a directed mutation can improve the efficiency of processing many optimization problems. The first mutation operators of this kind proposed by Hildebrand [1], however, suffer...
We propose a person-dependent, manifold-based approach for modeling and tracking rigid and nonrigid 3D facial deformations from a monocular video sequence. The rigid and nonrigid ...
Learning Automata (LA) were recently shown to be valuable tools for designing Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning algorithms. One of the principal contributions of LA theory is tha...
