Fractal image encoding is a computationally intensive method of compression due to its need to find the best match between image sub-blocks by repeatedly searching a large virtual...
In this paper, we study the two-dimensional geometrical bin packing problem (2DBP): given a list of rectangles, provide a packing of all these into the smallest possible number of ...
Given an undirected graph, finding either a minimum 2-edge-connected spanning subgraph or a minimum 2vertex-connected (biconnected) spanning subgraph is MaxSNP-hard. We show that ...

— In this article, we apply the competitive associative net called CAN2 to the processing of the range data of indoor environment acquired by a mobile robot, where the CAN2 is a ...
In this paper, we give a O(log copt)-approximation algorithm for the point guard problem where copt is the optimal number of guards. Our algorithm runs in time polynomial in n, the...
