This paper addresses the automatic classification of semantic relations in noun phrases based on cross-linguistic evidence from a set of five Romance languages. A set of novel s...
We show that for any convex object Q in the plane, the average distance between the Fermat-Weber center of Q and the points in Q is at least 4(Q)/25, and at most 2(Q)/(3 3), wher...
We describe a methodology for representing and optimizing user preferences on plans. Our approach differs from previous work on plan optimization in that we employ a generalizatio...

We compare inexact Newton and block coordinate descent optimization methods for improving the quality of a mesh by repositioning the vertices, where the overall quality is measure...
