In recent years, the combinatorics of argumentation with arguments that can attack each other has been studied extensively. Especially, attack graphs (put in the focus of attentio...
In this paper, we study the spread of influence through a social network, in a model initially studied by Kempe, Kleinberg and Tardos [14, 15]: We are given a graph modeling a soc...
Tone-enhanced, generalized character posterior probability (GCPP), a generalized form of posterior probability at subword (Chinese character) level, is proposed as a rescoring met...
One of the most fundamental problems in web search is how to re-rank result web pages based on user logs. Most traditional models for re-ranking assume each query has a single int...
In this paper, we consider the problem of maximizing the battery life (or duration of service) in battery-powered CMOS circuits. We first show that the battery efficiency (or utili...
