Abstract. The key to the integration of formal methods into engineering practice is education. In teaching, domain-independent problems -i.e., not requiring prior engineering backg...
Web spamming, the practice of introducing artificial text and links into web pages to affect the results of searches, has been recognized as a major problem for search engines. Bu...
A wide range of counting and occurrence constraints can be specified with just two global primitives: the Range constraint, which computes the range of values used by a sequence of...
In practical issues, categorical data and numerical data usually coexist, and a unified data reduction technique for hybrid data is desirable. In this paper, an information measu...
— We consider dual subgradient methods for solving (nonsmooth) convex constrained optimization problems. Our focus is on generating approximate primal solutions with performance ...
