Probabilistic latent topic models have recently enjoyed much success in extracting and analyzing latent topics in text in an unsupervised way. One common deficiency of existing to...
Though there exist some rules of thumb for design of good models for solving constraint satisfaction problems, the modeling process still belongs more to art than to science. Moreo...
An approach is presented for imposing generic hard constraints on deformable models at a low computational cost, while preserving the good convergence properties of snake-like mod...
- Clock skew scheduling (CSS) is an effective technique to optimize clock period of sequential designs. However, these techniques are not effective in the presence of certain desig...
We consider constructive preference elicitation for decision aid systems in applications such as configuration or electronic catalogs. We are particularly interested in supporting ...
