This paper describes an algorithm for maximising a conditional likelihood function when the corresponding unconditional likelihood function is more easily maximised. The algorithm is similar to the EM ...

Submodular function optimisation has emerged as a cornerstone of contemporary algorithm design, offering a powerful framework to address a broad range of combinatorial problems characterised by the ...

Algorithms are more than equations. They redefine us. A few years back, rumor had it that a multinational technology company was making great strides to finalize and implement a computerized hiring ...
