This paper deals with the problem of optimally matching two ordered sets of 3-D points by means of a rigid displacement. Contrary to the standard approach, where a sumof-squared-er...
Software developers use testing to gain and maintain confidence in the correctness of a software system. Automated reduction and prioritization techniques attempt to decrease the...
We consider the problem of finding efficient trees to send information from k sources to a single sink in a network where information can be aggregated at intermediate nodes in t...
This paper describes Pairwise Bisection: a nonparametric approach to optimizing a noisy function with few function evaluations. The algorithm uses nonparametric reasoning about si...
Query generators producing sequences of SQL statements are embedded in many applications. As the execution time of such sequences is often far from optimal, their optimization is ...
