Identifying a minimal unsatisfiable core in an Alloy model proved to be a very useful feature in many scenarios. We extend this concept to hot core, an approximation to unsat core...
Abstract. We study bisimulation and minimization for weighted automata, relying on a geometrical representation of the model, linear weighted automata (lwa). In a lwa, the state-sp...
In this paper we address the image restoration problem in the variational framework. Classical approaches minimize the Lp norm of the residual and rely on parametric assumptions o...

-- In interconnect-dominated designs, the ability to minimize layout-induced parasitic effects is crucial for rapid design closure. Deep sub-micron effects and ubiquitous interfere...
Abductive inference has long been associated with the logic of scientific discovery and automated abduction is now being used in real scientific tasks. But few methods can exploi...
