We consider the Connected Facility Location problem. We are given a graph G = (V, E) with costs {ce} on the edges, a set of facilities F V , and a set of clients D V . Facility ...
In this paper, we consider the problem of assisting a busy user in managing her workload of pending tasks. We assume that our user is typically oversubscribed, and is invariably j...
Abstract--In this paper, we investigate the use of messagepassing algorithms for the problem of finding the max-weight independent set (MWIS) in a graph. First, we study the perfor...
Tracking regions in an image sequence is a challenging and di cult problem in image processing and computer vision, and at the same time, one that has many important applications:...
Given A := {a1, . . . , am} Rn and > 0, we propose and analyze two algorithms for the problem of computing a (1 + )-approximation to the radius of the minimum enclosing ball o...
