For a polygon P, the bounded Voronoi diagram of P is a partition of P into regions assigned to the vertices of P. A point p inside P belongs to the region of a vertex v if and onl...
Information retrieval and data compression are the two main application areas where the rich theory of string algorithmics plays a fundamental role. In this paper, we consider one ...
For discrete sets coded by the Freeman chain describing their contour, several linear algorithms have been designed for determining their shape properties. Most of them are based ...
We significantly improve known time bounds for solving the minimum cut problem on undirected graphs. We use a "semiduality" between minimum cuts and maximum spanning tree...
The Robinson-Foulds (RF) metric is the measure most widely used in comparing phylogenetic trees; it can be computed in linear time using Day's algorithm. When faced with the n...
