Learning Optimized MAP Estimates in Continuously-Valued MRF Models
We present a new approach for the discriminative training of continuous-valued Markov Random Field (MRF) model parameters. In our approach we train the MRF model by optimizing t...

A Value Ordering Heuristic for Local Search in Distributed Resource Allocation
Abstract. In this paper we develop a localized value-ordering heuristic for distributed resource allocation problems. We show how this value ordering heuristics can be used to achi...

Solving POMDPs using quadratically constrained linear programs
Developing scalable algorithms for solving partially observable Markov decision processes (POMDPs) is an important challenge. One promising approach is based on representing POMDP...

Managing the operator ordering problem in parallel databases
This paper focuses on parallel query optimization. We consider the operator problem and introduce a new class of execution strategies called Linear-Oriented Bushy Trees (LBTs). Co...
