The Complexity of Computing Maximal Word Functions
Maximal word functions occur in data retrieval applications and have connections with ranking problems, which in turn were rst investigated in relation to data compression 21 . By ...

Word Alignment via Submodular Maximization over Matroids
We cast the word alignment problem as maximizing a submodular function under matroid constraints. Our framework is able to express complex interactions between alignment component...

From query complexity to computational complexity
We consider submodular optimization problems, and provide a general way of translating oracle inapproximability results arising from the symmetry gap technique to computational co...

A revealed preference approach to computational complexity in economics
Recent results in complexity theory suggest that various economic theories require agents to solve computationally intractable problems. However, such results assume the agents ar...

The geometry of consonant belief functions: Simplicial complexes of necessity measures
In this paper we extend the geometric approach to the theory of evidence in order to include the class of necessity measures, represented on a finite domain of “frame” by con...
