Logic programs under answer-set semantics constitute an important tool for declarative problem solving. In recent years, two research issues received growing attention. On the one ...

In this paper we introduce the semantic approach of the answer extraction component of a question answering system called SBUQA. The answer extraction component gets the retrieved...
A problem open for many years is whether there is an FPT algorithm that given a graph G and parameter k, either: (1) determines that G has no k-Dominating Set, or (2) produces a do...

We present new combinatorial approximation algorithms for k-set cover. Previous approaches are based on extending the greedy algorithm by efficiently handling small sets. The new a...

We show how any BSP tree TP for the endpoints of a set of n disjoint segments in the plane can be used to obtain a BSP tree of size O(n · depth(TP )) for the segments themselves, ...
