We consider the problem of finding a ranking of a set of elements that is "closest to" a given set of input rankings of the elements; more precisely, we want to find a p...
Abstract. In this work we study the theoretical and empirical properties of various global inference algorithms for multi-document summarization. We start by defining a general fr...
This paper studies the issue of space coordinate change in genetic algorithms, based on two methods: convex quadratic approximations, and principal component analysis. In both met...
