The satisfiability problem is the fundamental problem in proving the conflict-freeness of specifications, or in finding a counterexample for an invalid statement. In this paper, w...
In this paper we study a fundamental open problem in the area of probabilistic checkable proofs: What is the smallest s such that NP naPCP1,s[O(log n), 3]? In the language of har...
The notion of using context information for solving high-level vision and medical image segmentation problems has been increasingly realized in the field. However, how to learn a...
Necessary first-order sequential optimality conditions provide adequate theoretical tools to justify stopping criteria for nonlinear programming solvers. These conditions are sati...
Semidefinite optimization, commonly referred to as semidefinite programming, has been a remarkably active area of research in optimization during the last decade. For combinatoria...
