“Energy” models for continuous domains can be applied to many problems, but often suffer from high computational expense in training, due to the need to repeatedly minimize t...
Often, high dimensional data lie close to a low-dimensional submanifold and it is of interest to understand the geometry of these submanifolds. The homology groups of a manifold a...

We show that the stick-breaking construction of the beta process due to Paisley et al. (2010) can be obtained from the characterization of the beta process as a Poisson process. S...

Effective methods for metrics definition are of particular importance, as measurement mechanisms are indispensable in virtually any engineering discipline. The paper describes how ...
Finite-domain constraint programming can be used to solve a wide range of problems by first modelling the problem as a set of constraints that characterise the problem’s solutio...
