Applying Metric-Trees to Belief-Point POMDPs
Recent developments in grid-based and point-based approximation algorithms for POMDPs have greatly improved the tractability of POMDP planning. These approaches operate on sets of...

Adapting to a reliable network path
We consider the model of unreliable network links, where at each time unit a link might be either up or down. We consider two related problems. The first, establishing end to end...

Coresets in dynamic geometric data streams
A dynamic geometric data stream consists of a sequence of m insert/delete operations of points from the discrete space {1, . . . , ∆}d [26]. We develop streaming (1 + )-approxim...
