This paper examines a generalization of a two-stage game common on eBay: an ascending-price auction followed by price discrimination (the second chance offer). High bids in the a...
Aiming to clarify the convergence or divergence conditions for Learning Classifier System (LCS), this paper explores: (1) an extreme condition where the reinforcement process of ...
We study the representation, derivation and utilization of a special kind of constraints in multidatabase systems. A major challenge is when component database schemas are schemat...
We study network capacity limits and optimal routing algorithms for regular sensor networks, namely, square and torus grid sensor networks, in both, the static case (no node failu...
This paper presents a novel way for assessing the affective qualities of natural language and a scenario for its use. Previous approaches to textual affect sensing have employed k...
