The MAP (maximum a posteriori hypothesis) problem in Bayesian networks is to find the most likely states of a set of variables given partial evidence on the complement of that set...
This paper studies a text mining problem, comparative sentence mining. A comparative sentence expresses an ordering relation between two sets of entities with respect to some comm...
Computer systems are rapidly becoming so complex that maintaining them with human support staffs will be prohibitively expensive and inefficient. In response, visionaries have beg...
A memory-based heuristic is a heuristic function that is stored in a lookup table. Very accurate heuristics have been created by building very large lookup tables, sometimes calle...
