Fast shortest path distance estimation in large networks
In this paper we study approximate landmark-based methods for point-to-point distance estimation in very large networks. These methods involve selecting a subset of nodes as landm...

Computing similarity between piecewise-linear functions
We study the problem of computing the similarity between two piecewise-linear bivariate functions defined over a common domain, where the surfaces they define in 3D—polyhedral...
