Abstract—We present the query-by-description (QBD) component of “Kandem,” a time-aware music retrieval system. The QBD system we describe learns a relation between descriptiv...
Augmenting an existing network with additional links to achieve higher robustness and survivability plays an important role in network design. We consider the problem of augmenting...
Hierarchical decompositions of graphs are interesting for algorithmic purposes. There are several types of hierarchical decompositions. Tree decompositions are the best known ones....
Abstract. We answer a question asked by Hajdu and Tengely: The only arithmetic progression in coprime integers of the form (a2 , b2 , c2 , d5 ) is (1, 1, 1, 1). For the proof, we ...
Architectures for optical processors designed to solve bounded instances of NP-Complete problems are suggested. One approach mimics the traveling salesman by traveling beams that ...
