Output coding is a general framework for solving multiclass categorization problems. Previous research on output codes has focused on building multiclass machines given predefine...
We consider the DIRECTED STEINER NETWORK problem, also called the POINT-TO-POINT CONNECTION problem, where given a directed graph G and p pairs {(s1,t1),...,(sp,tp)} of nodes in t...
In this paper, we generalize the Ski-Rental Problem to the Bahncard Problem which is an online problem of practical relevance for all travelers. The Bahncard is a railway pass of t...
The max k-armed bandit problem is a recently-introduced online optimization problem with practical applications to heuristic search. Given a set of k slot machines, each yielding p...
The quadratic multiple knapsack problem extends the quadratic knapsack problem with K knapsacks, each with its own capacity Ck. A greedy heuristic fills the knapsacks one at a tim...
