Object location using path separators
We study a novel separator property called k-path separable. Roughly speaking, a k-path separable graph can be recursively separated into smaller components by sequentially removi...

Topic-Focused Multi-Document Summarization Using an Approximate Oracle Score
We consider the problem of producing a multi-document summary given a collection of documents. Since most successful methods of multi-document summarization are still largely extr...

Estimating aggregates in time-constrained approximate queries in Oracle
The concept of time-constrained SQL queries was introduced to address the problem of long-running SQL queries. A key approach adopted for supporting time-constrained SQL queries i...

Parallel monotonicity reconstruction
We investigate the problem of monotonicity reconstruction, as defined in [3], in a parallel setting. We have oracle access to a nonnegative real-valued function f defined on domai...

Oblivious Randomized Direct Search for Real-Parameter Optimization
The focus is on black-box optimization of a function f : RN R given as a black box, i. e. an oracle for f-evaluations. This is commonly called direct search, and in fact, most meth...
