We pose robust matching with parametric and non-parametric constraints as the problem of finding a stable independent set (SIS) in an oriented graph whose vertices are all possible...
As many real-world problems involve user preferences, costs, or probabilities, constraint satisfaction has been extended to optimization by generalizing hard constraints to soft co...
— This work considers the problem of transmitting multiple compressible sources over a network with minimum cost. The problem is complicated by the fact that the description of t...
