Suppose we are given a finite set of points P in R3 and a collection of polytopes T that are all translates of the same polytope T. We consider two problems in this paper. The firs...
Vector Quantization is useful for data compression. Competitive Learning which minimizes reconstruction error is an appropriate algorithm for vector quantization of unlabelled dat...
Any valid Ramsey statement n −→ (k)2 2 can be encoded into a DNF formula RAM(n, k) of size O(nk) and with terms of size k 2 . Let rk be the minimal n for which the statement h...
Abstract. We study an extension of the set cover problem, the connected set cover problem, the problem is to find a set cover of minimal size that satisfies some connectivity con...
