In this paper we study a fundamental open problem in the area of probabilistic checkable proofs: What is the smallest s such that NP naPCP1,s[O(log n), 3]? In the language of har...
Abstract. Scheduling jobs on unrelated parallel machines so as to minimize the makespan is one of the basic, well-studied problems in the area of machine scheduling. In the first ...
The k-means algorithm is the method of choice for clustering large-scale data sets and it performs exceedingly well in practice. Most of the theoretical work is restricted to the c...
An extension of the AdaBoost learning algorithm is proposed and brought to bear on the face detection problem. In each weak classifier selection cycle, the novel totally correctiv...
This paper is concerned with on-line problems where a mobile robot of size D has to achieve a task in an unknown planar environment whose geometry is acquired by the robot during ...
