We apply CMA-ES, an evolution strategy with covariance matrix adaptation, and TDL (Temporal Difference Learning) to reinforcement learning tasks. In both cases these algorithms se...
The comprehensive understanding of today’s software systems is a daunting activity, because of the sheer size and complexity that such systems exhibit. Moreover, software system...
Today’s distributed systems need runtime error detection to catch errors arising from software bugs, hardware errors, or unexpected operating conditions. A prominent class of err...

There are various techniques for simulating crowds, however, in most cases the quality of the simulation is measured by examining its “look-and-feel”. Even if the aggregate mov...
Clickthrough rate and cost-per-click are known to be among the factors that impact the rank of an ad shown on a search result page. Hence, search engines can benefit from estimat...
