Wooden Geometric Puzzles: Design and Hardness Proofs
We discuss some new geometric puzzles and the complexity of their extension to arbitrary sizes. For gate puzzles and two-layer puzzles we prove NP-completeness of solving them. No...

Robust Proximity Queries: An Illustration of Degree-Driven Algorithm Design
Abstract. In the context of methodologies intended to confer robustness to geometric algorithms, we elaborate on the exact-computation paradigm and formalize the notion of degree o...

Constraint solvers: An empirical evaluation of design decisions
This paper presents an evaluation of the design decisions made in four state-of-the-art constraint solvers; Choco, ECLiPSe, Gecode, and Minion. To assess the impact of design deci...

Using the Geometrical Distribution of Prototypes for Training Set Condensing
Abstract. In this paper, some new approaches to training set size reduction are presented. These schemes basically consist of defining a small number of prototypes that represent ...

Lagrangian empirical design of variable-rate vector quantizers: consistency and convergence rates
Abstract--The Lagrangian formulation of variable-rate vector quantization is known to yield useful necessary conditions for quantizer optimality and generalized Lloyd algorithms fo...
