In this paper, stochastic error-correcting parsing is proposed as a powerful and flexible method to post-process the results of an optical character recognizer (OCR). Determinist...
In this paper we present an algorithm for face detection that is based on generic local descriptors (e.g. eyes). A generic descriptor captures the distribution of individual descr...
We present two models of hierarchical structured multi-agents, and we describe how to obtain a modal knowledge base from distributed sources. We then propose a computationally orie...
: Support for cooperative distributed applications is an important direction of computer systems research involving developments in operating systems, programming languages and dat...
Abstract. The Berth Allocation Problem (BAP) consists on programming and allocating ships to berthing areas along a quay. The BAP is modeled as a vehicle routing problem and a rece...
