We present a randomized strategy for maintaining balance in dynamically changing search trees that has optimal expected behavior. In particular, in the expected case a search or a...
This paper introduces a new approach to add fault-tolerance to a fulltext retrieval system. The weighted pattern morphing technique circumvents some of the disadvantages of the wid...
Abstract. A methodology is presented for tackling mixed-integer nonlinear optimization problems by local search, in particular large-scale real-life problems. This methodology is i...
With the rapid and dramatic increase in web feeds published by different publishers, providers or websites via Really Simple Syndication (RSS) and Atom, users cannot be expected t...
To enable efficient similarity search in large databases, many indexing techniques use a linear transformation scheme to reduce dimensions and allow fast approximation. In this re...
