Soft biometrics, as a prescreening filter, contribute to a much smaller candidate pool and allow the overall query to perform better and faster. In this paper, we focus on the eff...
Wikipedia provides a knowledge base for computing word relatedness in a more structured fashion than a search engine and with more coverage than WordNet. In this work we present e...
In this paper a two-level hierarchical model for the location of concentrators and routers in computers networks is presented. Given a set of candidate locations and the capacitie...
We present a stochastic approximation method to compute bid prices in network revenue management problems. The key idea is to visualize the total expected revenue as a function of...
In this paper, we suggest a linear programming formulation that allows for solving volume and capacity planning problems in semiconductor manufacturing systems. We assume a genera...
