Separable convex optimization problems with linear ascending inequality and equality constraints are addressed in this paper. An algorithm that explicitly characterizes the optimum...
Shape of an object is an important feature for image and multimedia similarity retrievals. In our previous studies we introduced a new boundary-based technique (MBC-based) for shap...
In this paper, we restudy the non-convex data factorization problems (regularized or not, unsupervised or supervised), where the optimization is confined in the nonnegative orthan...
The firefighter problem is the following discrete-time game on a graph. Initially, a fire starts at a vertex of the graph. In each round, a firefighter protects one vertex not yet ...
Semantic Web service descriptions are typically multiparameter constructs. Discovering semantically relevant services, given a desirable service description, is typically addresse...
