Image segmentation of natural scenes constitutes a major problem in Machine Vision. This paper presents a new proposal for the image segmentation problem which has been based on t...
Precedence constraints play a crucial role in planning and scheduling problems. Many real-life problems also include dependency constraints expressing logical relations between the...
This research aims at studying the effects of exchanging information during the learning process in Multiagent Systems. The concept of advice-exchange, introduced in (Nunes and Ol...
Abstract-- This paper deals with evaluation of image segmentation methods. We start with a state-of-the art of the evaluation criteria, involving a reference segmentation or not. B...
The problem of group ranking, a.k.a. rank aggregation, has been studied in contexts varying from sports, to multi-criteria decision making, to machine learning, to ranking web pag...
