Investors would like to calculate profits in advance, “ex ante”, like the path of a flying ball. But income can only be given “ex post”, after the money is earned. The pro...
Abstract. A classic result known as the speed-up theorem in machineindependent complexity theory shows that there exist some computable functions that do not have best programs for...
We study functional and multivalued dependencies over SQL tables with NOT NULL constraints. Under a no-information interpretation of null values we develop tools for reasoning. We...
This paper proposes three novel training methods, two of them based on the back-propagation approach and a third one based on information theory for Multilayer Perceptron (MLP) bin...
We consider the parallels between the preference elicitation problem in combinatorial auctions and the problem of learning an unknown function from learning theory. We show that l...
