An Optimal Rebuilding Strategy for an Incremental Tree Problem
This paper is devoted to the following incremental problem. Initially, a graph and a distinguished subset of vertices, called initial group, are given. This group is connected by ...

Optimal Parametric Search on Graphs of Bounded Tree-Width
We give linear-time algorithms for a class of parametric search problems on weighted graphs of bounded tree-width. We also discuss the implications of our results to approximate p...

Computing Locally Coherent Discourses
We present the first algorithm that computes optimal orderings of sentences into a locally coherent discourse. The algorithm runs very efficiently on a variety of coherence measur...

Model Selection for Kernel Probit Regression
Abstract. The convex optimisation problem involved in fitting a kernel probit regression (KPR) model can be solved efficiently via an iteratively re-weighted least-squares (IRWLS)...

Making Hard Problems Harder
We consider a general approach to the hoary problem of (im)proving circuit lower bounds. We define notions of hardness condensing and hardness extraction, in analogy to the corres...
