We introduce a formal model for deployment and hosting of a dynamic grid service wherein the service provider must pay a resource provider for the use of computational resources. ...
Achieving the best possible cost performance for a system is often the goal of the manager of that system. This is true for large systems (such as an entire railroad system) as we...
The paper considers making inferences about the underlying true 2-D motion when only evaluations of a local block-based cost function, the mean of absolute or squared differences,...
We investigate using gradient descent methods for learning ranking functions; we propose a simple probabilistic cost function, and we introduce RankNet, an implementation of these...
