An important issue in data warehouse development is the selection of a set of views to materialize in order to accelerate OLAP queries, given certain space and maintenance time co...
The frequency with which various elements of the search space of a given evolutionary algorithm are sampled is affected by the family of recombination (reproduction) operators. Th...
Abstract. Recent works have shown the advantage of using Active Learning methods, such as the Query by Committee (QBC) algorithm, to various learning problems. This class of Algori...
We prove that if NP ⊆ BPP, i.e., if SAT is worst-case hard, then for every probabilistic polynomial-time algorithm trying to decide SAT, there exists some polynomially samplable ...
We prove that with high probability a skip graph contains a 4-regular expander as a subgraph, and estimate the quality of the expansion via simulations. As a consequence skip grap...
