Macro tree transducers (mtt) are an important model that both covers many useful XML transformations and allows decidable exact typechecking. This paper reports our first step tow...
Complex environmental modeling often involves a large number of unknown physical and ecological parameters. Parameter estimation is one of the most difficult steps in many modelin...
