Spline curves are useful in a variety of geometric modeling and graphics applications and covering problems abound in practical settings. This work defines a class of covering dec...
The paper addresses the relay node placement problem in two-tiered wireless sensor networks. Given a set of sensor nodes in an Euclidean plane, our objective is to place minimum nu...
We consider the question: What is the maximum flow achievable in a network if the flow must be decomposable into a collection of edgedisjoint paths? Equivalently, we wish to find a...
Nonnegative Matrix Factorization (NMF) is the problem of approximating a nonnegative matrix with the product of two low-rank nonnegative matrices and has been shown to be particul...
Assuming the existence of one-way functions, we show that there is no polynomial-time, differentially private algorithm A that takes a database D ({0, 1}d )n and outputs a "...
