For half a century since computers came into existence, the goal of finding elegant and efficient algorithms to solve "simple" (welldefined and well-structured) problems ...
Terrains are an essential part of outdoor environments. Terrain models are important for computer games and applications in architecture, urban design and archaeology. A popular a...
Quadratic Programming (QP) is the well-studied problem of maximizing over {−1, 1} values the quadratic form i=j aijxixj. QP captures many known combinatorial optimization proble...
Learning theory has largely focused on two main learning scenarios. The first is the classical statistical setting where instances are drawn i.i.d. from a fixed distribution and...

We study the computational complexity of some central analysis problems for One-Counter Markov Decision Processes (OC-MDPs), a class of finitely-presented, countable-state MDPs. O...
