Abstract: We define events so as to reduce the number of events and decision variables needed for modeling batchscheduling problems such as described in [Westenberger and Kallrath ...
In this paper, approximation by linear combinations of an increasing number n of computational units with adjustable parameters (such as perceptrons and radial basis functions) is ...
Variable-Length Encoding (VLE) is a process of reducing input data size by replacing fixed-length data words with codewords of shorter length. As VLE is one of the main building bl...
We derive a number of well known deterministic latent variable models such as PCA, ICA, EPCA, NMF and PLSA as variational EM approximations with point posteriors. We show that the...

It is well known that the ratio of the number of clauses to the number of variables in a random k-SAT instance is highly correlated with the instance’s empirical hardness. We con...
