This paper presents the Incremental Breakout Algorithm with Variable Ordering (IncBA). This algorithm belongs to the class of local search algorithms for solving Constraint Satisf...
We develop a family of upper and lower bounds on the worst-case expected KL loss for estimating a discrete distribution on a finite number m of points, given N i.i.d. samples. Our...
Abstract. Genetic algorithms (GAs) are a class of search algorithms based on principles of natural evolution. Hence, incorporating mechanisms used in nature may improve the perform...
— This paper shows that the distributed representation found in Learning Vector Quantization (LVQ) enables reinforcement learning methods to cope with a large decision search spa...
With the growing use of distributed information networks, there is an increasing need for algorithmic and system solutions for data-driven knowledge acquisition using distributed,...
