We present exact characterizations of structures on which the greedy algorithm produces optimal solutions. Our characterization, which we call matroid embeddings, complete the par...

Abstract—Interest in multimodal optimization function is expanding rapidly since real-world optimization problems often require the location of multiple optima in the search spac...
Geometric reconstruction problems in computer vision are often solved by minimizing a cost function that combines the reprojection errors in the 2D images. In this paper, we show t...
Self-managing solutions have recently attracted a lot of interest from the database community. The need for self-* properties is more evident in distributed applications comprising...
We propose a new kernel function for attributed molecular graphs, which is based on the idea of computing an optimal assignment from the atoms of one molecule to those of another ...
