Multi-Agent Learning with Policy Prediction
Due to the non-stationary environment, learning in multi-agent systems is a challenging problem. This paper first introduces a new gradient-based learning algorithm, augmenting th...

Minimizing the Diameter of a Network Using Shortcut Edges
We study the problem of minimizing the diameter of a graph by adding k shortcut edges, for speeding up communication in an existing network design. We develop constant-factor appro...

Reducibility among Fractional Stability Problems
— In a landmark paper [32], Papadimitriou introduced a number of syntactic subclasses of TFNP based on proof styles that (unlike TFNP) admit complete problems. A recent series of...

A Fast Approximation of the Bilateral Filter Using a Signal Processing Approach
The bilateral filter is a nonlinear filter that smoothes a signal while preserving strong edges. It has demonstrated great effectiveness for a variety of problems in computer visio...
