Several population-based methods (with origins in the world of evolutionary strategies and estimation-of-distribution algorithms) for black-box optimization in continuous domains ...
In this paper we propose a novel method for learning a Mahalanobis distance measure to be used in the KNN classification algorithm. The algorithm directly maximizes a stochastic v...

In time-parallel simulation, the simulation time axis is decomposed into a number of slices which are assigned to parallel processes for concurrent simulation. Although a promisin...
This paper introduces schema tuple queries and argues for their suitability in representing knowledge over standard relational databases. Schema tuple queries are queries that ret...
We define state transition grammars (STG) as an intermediate tbrmalism between grammars and parsing algorithms which is intended to separate the description of a parsing strategy ...
