In this paper we extend the geometric approach to the theory of evidence in order to include the class of necessity measures, represented on a finite domain of “frame” by con...
We present a novel algorithm for agglomerative hierarchical clustering based on evaluating marginal likelihoods of a probabilistic model. This algorithm has several advantages ove...
We extend to disjunctive logic programs our previous work on computing loop formulas of loops with at most one external support. We show that for these logic programs, loop formula...
In many settings the power of truthful mechanisms is severely bounded. In this paper we use randomization to overcome this problem. In particular, we construct an FPTAS for multi-...
—Designing an overlay network for publish/subscribe communication in a system where nodes may subscribe to many different topics of interest is of fundamental importance. For sca...
