Replacement Paths via Fast Matrix Multiplication
Let G be a directed edge-weighted graph and let P be a shortest path from s to t in G. The replacement paths problem asks to compute, for every edge e on P, the shortest s-to-t pat...

Trading Accuracy for Sparsity in Optimization Problems with Sparsity Constraints
We study the problem of minimizing the expected loss of a linear predictor while constraining its sparsity, i.e., bounding the number of features used by the predictor. While the r...

Meshfree Thinning of 3D Point Clouds
An efficient data reduction scheme for the simplification of a surface given by a large set X of 3D point-samples is proposed. The data reduction relies on a recursive point remov...

On the Complexity of Learning Lexicographic Strategies
Fast and frugal heuristics are well studied models of bounded rationality. Psychological research has proposed the take-the-best heuristic as a successful strategy in decision mak...
