Applying Metric-Trees to Belief-Point POMDPs
Recent developments in grid-based and point-based approximation algorithms for POMDPs have greatly improved the tractability of POMDP planning. These approaches operate on sets of...

A Sampling-Based Approach to Optimizing Top-k Queries in Sensor Networks
Wireless sensor networks generate a vast amount of data. This data, however, must be sparingly extracted to conserve energy, usually the most precious resource in battery-powered ...

Worst-Case to Average-Case Reductions Based on Gaussian Measures
We show that finding small solutions to random modular linear equations is at least as hard as approximating several lattice problems in the worst case within a factor almost line...
