Traditionally, optimizers are “programmed” to optimize queries following a set of buildin procedures. However, optimizers should be robust to its changing environment to gener...
Decentralized Markov Decision Processes are a powerful general model of decentralized, cooperative multi-agent problem solving. The high complexity of the general problem leads to...
In this work we explore how the complexity of a problem domain affects the performance of evolutionary search using a performance-based restart policy. Previous research indicates...
The Hoare approach to program verification relies on the construction and discharge of verification conditions (VCs) but offers no support to trace, analyze, and understand the VCs...
We are developing systems which play music on synthesized plucked strings instruments idiomatically. The present paper introduces a system focusing on the acoustic guitar. The sys...
