Multivariate loss functions are used to assess performance in many modern prediction tasks, including information retrieval and ranking applications. Convex approximations are typically optimized in their place to avoid NP-hard empirical risk minimization problems. We propose to approximate the training data instead of the loss function by posing multivariate prediction as an adversarial game b...

Joyal’s categorical construction on (well-founded) Conway games and winning strategies provides a compact closed category, where tensor and linear implication are defined via Conway disjunctive sum (in combination with negation for linear implication). The equivalence induced on games by the morphisms coincides with the contextual closure of the equideterminacy relation w.r.t. the disjunctive s...

We present COBS — a model of a concurrent object-based computational system with handshakes as elementary actions of inter-process communication. Processes are considered to be partial views of the system. Their communication by asynchronous message passing and variable sharing is modeled by elementary processes on the same abstraction level. The same acts of computation and communication can b...

It was collected from two localities (Abu-Al Khaseeb region and Hareer region) from Basrah city. ضرلاا عقوقلا نم ةنيع نورشعو نامث ي Allopeas gracilis مت للاخ ةرصبلا ةنيدم ،ريرح ةقطنم و بيصخلا وبا ةقطنم نم اھعمج ناسين رھش 2008 راذاو 2008 يلاوتلا ىلع . ليجستلا اذھ ربتعي دعب ةرصبلا ةنيدم نم ةيضرلاا عقاوقلا نم ثلاثلا Monacha...

In this paper, we continue the study of the domination game in graphs introduced by Bre{v{s}}ar, Klav{v{z}}ar, and Rall. We study the paired-domination version of the domination game which adds a matching dimension to the game. This game is played on a graph $G$ by two players, named Dominator and Pairer. They alternately take turns choosing vertices of $G$ such that each vertex chosen by Domin...
