Given a scene consisting of objects, ray shooting queries answer with the first object encountered by a given ray, and are used in ray tracing and radiosity for rendering photo-r...
We propose a fast methodology for encoding graphs with information-theoretically minimum numbers of bits. Specifically, a graph with property π is called a π-graph. If π satis...
Generalized additive models (GAM) for modelling nonlinear effects of continuous covariates are now well established tools for the applied statistician. In this paper we develop Ba...
This article surveys three techniques for enhancing heuristic game-tree search pioneered in the author's Othello program Logistello, which dominated the computer Othello scen...
In this paper we propose a uniform approach to deal with incremental problems on digraphs and with decremental problems on dags generalizing a technique used by La Poutr´e and va...
