We present an approximate implicitization method for planar curves. The computed implicit representation is a piecewise rational approximation of the distance function to the given...
Nonnegative Matrix Factorization (NMF) is the problem of approximating a nonnegative matrix with the product of two low-rank nonnegative matrices and has been shown to be particul...
This paper deals with the minimal polyadic decomposition (also known as canonical decomposition or Parafac) of a 3way array, assuming each entry is positive. In this case, the low...
Although many real-world stochastic planning problems are more naturally formulated by hybrid models with both discrete and continuous variables, current state-of-the-art methods ...

One of the strongest techniques available for showing lower bounds on quantum communication complexity is the logarithm of the approximation rank of the communication matrix— th...
