The Metric Labeling problem is an elegant and powerful mathematical model capturing a wide range of classification problems. The input to the problem consists of a set of labels a...
This paper considers online stochastic reservation problems, where requests come online and must be dynamically allocated to limited resources in order to maximize profit. Multi-k...

Real-life problems present several kinds of preferences. We focus on problems with both positive and negative preferences, that we call bipolar preference problems. Although seemin...

Differential operators are required to compute several characteristics for continuous surfaces, as e.g. tangents, curvature, flatness, shape descriptors. We propose to replace diff...
Abstract. Recently, there is an explosive development of fluid approaches to computer and distributed systems. These approaches are inherently stochastic and generate continuous st...
