We develop new structural results for apex-minor-free graphs and show their power by developing two new approximation algorithms. The first is an additive approximation for colorin...

Abstract— We propose a new approximate algorithm, LAJIV (Lookahead J-MDP Information Value), to solve Oracular Partially Observable Markov Decision Problems (OPOMDPs), a special ...
Abstract. In this paper we present a heuristic based on dynamic approximations for improving the well-known Schnorr-Euchner lattice basis reduction algorithm. In particular, the ne...
We consider the following planar maximum weight triangulation (MAT) problem: given a set of n points in the plane, find a triangulation such that the total length of edges in tria...
Design and analysis of articulated mechanical structures, commonly referred to as linkages, is an integral part of any CAD/CAM system. The most common approaches formulate the pro...
