The widespread use of artificial neural networks and the difficult work regarding the correct specification (tuning) of parameters for a given problem are the main aspects that mot...
: In this paper we consider two problems regarding the scheduling of available personnel in order to perform a given quantity of work, which can be arbitrarily decomposed into a se...
We propose a simulation-based method for calculating maximum likelihood estimators in latent variable models. The proposed method integrates a recently developed sampling strategy...
In many occasions, the text describing an algorithmic task may entail a rather intuitive, operational solution scheme. Yet, such a scheme may not necessarily be efficient or correc...
Abstract. For certain problems (for example, computing repetitions and repeats, data compression applications) it is not necessary that the suffixes of a string represented in a su...
