Abstract. This paper explores the possibility of using a modified Expectation-Maximization algorithm to estimate parameters for a simple hierarchical generative model for XML retr...
An important extension of satisfiability testing is model-counting, a task that corresponds to problems such as probabilistic reasoning and computing the permanent of a Boolean ma...
This paper presents a novel source code transformation for control flow optimizationcalled loop nest splitting which minimizes the number of executed if-statements in loop nests ...
Abstract. In a process calculus, an agent guarantees responsive usage of a channel name r if a communication along r is guaranteed to eventually take place. Responsiveness is impor...
Abstract. Thanks to its extended expressiveness, the quantified constraint satisfaction problem (QCSP) can be used to model problems that are difficult to express in the standard C...
