A key problem when interpolating a network of curves occurs at vertices: an algebraic condition called the vertex enclosure constraint must hold wherever an even number of curves ...
The Valued Constraint Satisfaction Problem (VCSP) is a general framework encompassing many optimisation problems. We discuss precisely what it means for a problem to be modelled in...
We study the problem of rewriting queries using views in the presence of access patterns, integrity constraints, disjunction, and negation. We provide asymptotically optimal algori...
Abstract. Adaptive consistency is a solving algorithm for constraint networks. Its basic step is variable elimination: it takes a network as input, and producesan equivalent networ...
It is well-known that diversity among base classifiers is crucial for constructing a strong ensemble. Most existing ensemble methods obtain diverse individual learners through res...
