The (undirected) Steiner Network problem is: given a graph = ( , ) with edge/node-weights and edge-connectivity requirements { ( , ) : , }, find a minimumweight subgraph of conta...
The theory revision problem is the problem of how best to go about revising a deficient domain theory using information contained in examples that expose inaccuracies. In this pa...
The decomposition of an image into its primitive components, such as cartoon plus texture, is a fundamental problem in image processing. In [11, 16], the authors proposed a techni...
In this paper we introduce a novel optimization framework for hierarchical data clustering and apply it to the problem of unsupervised texture segmentation. The proposed objective...
— We present the memetic climber, a simple search algorithm that learns topology and weights of neural networks on different time scales. When applied to the problem of learning ...
