This paper examines a decision-tree framework for instance-space decomposition. According to the framework, the original instance-space is hierarchically partitioned into multiple...
Two notions of optimality have been explored in previous work on hierarchical reinforcement learning (HRL): hierarchical optimality, or the optimal policy in the space defined by ...
In this paper we introduce a new formulation of the logistics network design problem encountered in deterministic, single-country, single-period contexts. Our formulation is flexi...
One common problem in the practical application of volume visualization is the proper choice of transfer functions in order to color different parts of the volume meaningfully. Th...
Coding of video sequences using hierarchical B pictures in the Joint Scalable Video Model (JSVM) for the scalability amendment of H.264/AVC has the benefit of improved rate distor...
