We consider the problem of finding a shortest cycle (freely) homotopic to a given simple cycle on a compact, orientable surface. For this purpose, we use a pants decomposition of...
Forming effective coalitions is a major research challenge in AI and multi-agent systems (MAS). Coalition Structure Generation (CSG) involves partitioning a set of agents into coa...
We address the problem of computing critical area for missing material defects in a circuit layout. The extraction of critical area is the main computational problem in VLSI yield...
We consider the problem of online sublinear expander reconstruction and its relation to random walks in “noisy” expanders. Given access to an adjacency list representation of ...
—Redundant via insertion is a widely recommended technique to enhance the via yield and reliability. In this paper, the post-routing redundant via insertion problem is transforme...
