Various global optimization methods are compared in order to find the best strategy to solve realistic drag reduction problems in the automotive industry. All the methods consist ...
Finding multiple occurrences of themes and patterns in music can be hampered due to polyphonic textures. This is caused by the complexity of music that weaves multiple independent...
Abstract. The present study investigates a geometrical method for optimizing the kernel function of a support vector machine. The method is an improvement of the one proposed in [4...
— It is predicted that 70% of the chip area will be occupied by memories in future system-onchips. The minimization of on-chip memory hence becomes increasingly important for cos...
We initiate a new problem of automatic metro map layout. In general, a metro map consists of a set of lines which have intersections or overlaps. We define a set of aesthetic crit...
