We describe an extension of B-splines to surfacesof arbitrary topology, including arbitrary boundaries. The technique inherits many of the properties of B-splines: local control, ...
We present an accurate and efficient method for extraction of parasitic capacitances in submicron integrated circuits. The method uses a 3-D finite element model in which the cond...
We present tractable, exact algorithms for learning actions' effects and preconditions in partially observable domains. Our algorithms maintain a propositional logical repres...
Nonnegative Matrix Factorization (NMF) is the problem of approximating a nonnegative matrix with the product of two low-rank nonnegative matrices and has been shown to be particul...
We consider the following combinatorial auction: Given a range space (U, R), and m bidders interested in buying only ranges in R, each bidder j declares her bid bj : R R+. We give...
