—Ant-based algorithms or ant colony optimization (ACO) algorithms have been applied successfully to combinatorial optimization problems. More recently, Parpinelli and colleagues ...
In this paper, we propose a novel technique for video summarization based on the Singular Value Decomposition (SVD). For the input video sequence, we create a featureframe matrix ...
We present a new polynomial-space algorithm for solving Distributed Constraint Optimization problems (DCOP). The algorithm, called NCBB, is branch and bound search with modificati...
Rewriting queries using views is a powerful technique that has applications in data integration, data warehousing and query optimization. Query rewriting in relational databases i...
Important parameters in quantitative coronary angiography (QCA) are the severity and length of the lesion, the radius of the nonstenotic part of the affected vessel segment and th...
