— Software as a Service (SaaS) and the possibility to compose Web services provisioned over the Internet are important assets for a service-oriented architecture (SOA). However, ...
We study the problem of learning parity functions that depend on at most k variables (kparities) attribute-efficiently in the mistake-bound model. We design a simple, deterministi...
We introduce and analyze σ-local graphs, based on a definition of locality by Erickson [12]. We present two algorithms to construct such graphs, for any real number σ > 1 an...
Maximum entropy (Maxent) is useful in natural language processing and many other areas. Iterative scaling (IS) methods are one of the most popular approaches to solve Maxent. With...
The backbone of many software architectures and component integration frameworks is an architectural style that provides a domain-specific design vocabulary and a set of constrai...
