Many instances of NP-hard problems can be solved efficiently if the treewidth of their corresponding graph is small. Finding the optimal tree decompositions is an NP-hard problem a...
Wireless links can exhibit high error rates due to attenuation, fading, or interfering active radiation sources. To make matters worse, error rates can be highly variable due to c...
Coalition formation is an important form of interaction in multiagent systems. It enables the agents to satisfy tasks that they would otherwise be unable to perform, or would perf...
This paper is about Reinforcement Learning (RL) applied to online parameter tuning in Stochastic Local Search (SLS) methods. In particular a novel application of RL is considered i...
Abstract. Segmentation of images is often posed as a variational problem. As such, it is solved by formulating an energy functional depending on a contour and other image derived t...
