The problem of automatic feature selection/weighting in kernel methods is examined. We work on a formulation that optimizes both the weights of features and the parameters of the ...
Our main result is a reduction from worst-case lattice problems such as GAPSVP and SIVP to a certain learning problem. This learning problem is a natural extension of the `learnin...
Schema matching is one of the key challenges in information integration. It is a labor-intensive and time-consuming process. To alleviate the problem, many automated solutions have...
Determining relationships such as functional or inclusion dependencies within and across databases is important for many applications in information integration. When such informa...
We address the problem of efficient circuit switching in wide area networks. The solution provided is based on finding optimal routes for lightpaths and semilightpaths. A lightpat...
