A new approach to spatioterminological reasoning is presented which is based on a hybrid knowledge representation system architecture and on a representation of the RCC family tree...
We present a new random search method for solving simulation optimization problems. Our approach emphasizes the need for maintaining the right balance between exploration and expl...
The M-tree is a paged, dynamically balanced metric access method that responds gracefully to the insertion of new objects. Like many spatial access methods, the M-tree's perfo...
Ordinal classification is a form of multi-class classification where there is an inherent ordering between the classes, but not a meaningful numeric difference between them. Althou...
Markov Random Fields (MRFs) are ubiquitous in lowlevel computer vision. In this paper, we propose a new approach to the optimization of multi-labeled MRFs. Similarly to -expansion...
