For many large-scale combinatorial search/optimization problems, meta-heuristic algorithms face noisy objective functions, coupled with computationally expensive evaluation times....
As the Extensible Markup Language (XML) rapidly establishes itself as the de facto standard for presenting, storing, and exchanging data on the Internet, large volume of XML data ...
A perceptually based approach for selecting image samples has been developed. An existing image processing vision model has been extended to handle color and has been simplified ...
Many approaches to active learning involve periodically training one classifier and choosing data points with the lowest confidence. An alternative approach is to periodically cho...
Monte Carlo simulation techniques that use function approximations have been successfully applied to approximately price multi-dimensional American options. However, for many pric...
