We study algorithms for clustering data that were recently proposed by Balcan, Blum and Gupta in SODA’09 [4] and that have already given rise to two follow-up papers. The input f...
Adaptive Operator Selection (AOS) turns the impacts of the applications of variation operators into Operator Selection through a Credit Assignment mechanism. However, most Credit ...
We present a novel, efficient, initializationfree approach to the problem of epipolar geometry estimation, by formulating it as one of hyperplane inference from a sparse and noisy...
A central issue in the design of modern communication networks is that of providing performance guarantees. This issue is particularly important if the networks support real-time t...
In this paper the Northrhine-Westphalian metacomputing initiative is described. We start by discussing various general aspects of metacomputing and explain the reasons for founding...
