Approximating the Stretch Factor of Euclidean Graphs
There are several results available in the literature dealing with efficient construction of t-spanners for a given set S of n points in Rd. t-spanners are Euclidean graphs in whic...

On the average case performance of some greedy approximation algorithms for the uncapacitated facility location problem
In combinatorial optimization, a popular approach to NP-hard problems is the design of approximation algorithms. These algorithms typically run in polynomial time and are guarante...

Indexing Text with Approximate q-Grams
We present a new index for approximate string matching. The index collects text q-samples, that is, disjoint text substrings of length q, at fixed intervals and stores their posi...

Approximation of an open polygonal curve with a minimum number of circular arcs and biarcs
We present an algorithm for approximating a given open polygonal curve with a minimum number of circular arcs. In computer-aided manufacturing environments, the paths of cutting t...

Faster Algorithms for All-pairs Approximate Shortest Paths in Undirected Graphs
Let G = (V, E) be a weighted undirected graph having non-negative edge weights. An estimate ˆδ(u, v) of the actual distance δ(u, v) between u, v ∈ V is said to be of stretch t...
