In this paper we propose a utility model that accounts for both sales and branding advertisers. We first study the computational complexity of optimization problems related to bo...
— Similarity joins have attracted significant interest, with applications in Geographical Information Systems, astronomy, marketing analyzes, and anomaly detection. However, all...

This paper presents a modification of the particle swarm optimization algorithm (PSO) intended to combat the problem of premature convergence observed in many applications of PSO. ...
We propose a flexible geometric algorithm for placing arbitrary cracks and incisions on tetrahedralized deformable objects. Although techniques based on remeshing can also accomm...
Evolutionary testing denotes the use of evolutionary algorithms, e.g., Genetic Algorithms (GAs), to support various test automation tasks. Since evolutionary algorithms are heuris...
