The robust spanning tree problem is a variation, motivated by telecommunications applications, of the classic minimum spanning tree problem. In the robust spanning tree problem ed...
One of the criteria for inferring a species tree from a collection of gene trees, when gene tree incongruence is assumed to be due to incomplete lineage sorting (ILS), is minimize ...
A wide range of evidence points to a preference for syntactic structures in which dependencies are short. Here we examine the question: what kinds of dependency configurations min...
Because magnetic e ects have a much longer spatial range than electrostatic e ects, an interconnect line with large inductance will be sensitive to distant variations in interconn...

This paper describes a solution to the nearest neighbor problem. The proposed algorithm, which makes use of the triangle inequality property, is considered from a function minimiz...
