The Covariance-Matrix-Adaptation Evolution-Strategy (CMA-ES) is a robust stochastic search algorithm for optimizing functions defined on a continuous search space RD . Recently, ...
In many image or video retrieval systems, the search of similar objects in the database includes a spatial access method to a multidimensional feature space. This step is generall...
Abstract. Finite model search for first-order logic theories is complementary to theorem proving. Systems like Falcon, SEM and FMSET use the known LNH (Least Number Heuristic) heur...
Abstract. This paper investigates the applicability of Informedia shot-based interface features for video retrieval in the hands of novice users, noted in past work as being too re...
The challenge of maximizing the diversity of a collection of points arises in a variety of settings, including the setting of search methods for hard optimization problems. One ver...
