In a collaborative environment, knowledge about collaborators’ skills is an important factor when determining which team members should perform a task. However, this knowledge ma...
We present a method for utilizing soft information in decoding of variable length codes (VLCs). When compared with traditional VLC decoding, which is performed using "hard&quo...
Markov Random Fields are widely used in many image processing applications. Recently the shortcomings of some of the simpler forms of these models have become apparent, and models ...
A new algorithm for learning one-variable pattern languages is proposed and analyzed with respect to its average-case behavior. We consider the total learning time that takes into...
Bin packing is a well known problem which has a large number of applications. Classical bin packing is a simple model where all bins are identical. In the bin packing problem with...
