Let S be a set of points in the plane. What is the minimum possible dilation of all plane graphs that contain S? Even for a set S as simple as five points evenly placed on the ci...
We answer a question raised by Brass on the number of maximally repeated sub-patterns in a set of n points in Rd. We show that this number, which was conjectured to be polynomial,...
In the current project, we aim at developing an approach for automatically answering why-questions. We created a data collection for research, development and evaluation of a meth...
This paper describes the use of machine learning to improve the performance of natural language question answering systems. We present a model for improving story comprehension th...
