Computing mean and variance under Dempster-Shafer uncertainty: Towards faster algorithms
In many real-life situations, we only have partial information about the actual probability distribution. For example, under Dempster-Shafer uncertainty, we only know the masses m...

Discrete regression methods on the cone of positive-definite matrices
We consider the problem of fitting a discrete curve to time-labeled data points on the set Pn of all n-by-n symmetric positive-definite matrices. The quality of a curve is measu...

Robust Registration of 2D and 3D Point Sets
This paper introduces a new method of registering point sets. The registration error is directly minimized using general-purpose non-linear optimization (the Levenberg–Marquardt...

Maximizing Non-Monotone Submodular Functions
Submodular maximization generalizes many important problems including Max Cut in directed/undirected graphs and hypergraphs, certain constraint satisfaction problems and maximum f...

Symmetric range assignment with disjoint MST constraints
If V is a set of n points in the unit square [0, 1]2 , and if R : V + is an assignment of positive real numbers (radii) to to those points, define a graph G(R) as follows: {v, w}...
