Given a metric graph G, we are concerned with finding a spanning tree of G where the maximum weighted degree of its vertices is minimum. In a metric graph (or its spanning tree),...

Markov networks are a common class of graphical models used in machine learning. Such models use an undirected graph to capture dependency information among random variables in a ...
The paper presents distributed and parallel -approximation algorithms for covering problems, where is the maximum number of variables on which any constraint depends (for example...
We present a distributed 2-approximation algorithm for the minimum vertex cover problem. The algorithm is deterministic, and it runs in (∆ + 1)2 synchronous communication rounds,...
We present an approach to tracking human activities in a monocular video. We model the human body by decomposing it into torso and limbs and use simple 3D shapes to approximate th...
