Faster Approximation of Distances in Graphs
Let G = (V, E) be an weighted undirected graph on n vertices and m edges, and let dG be its shortest path metric. We present two simple deterministic algorithms for approximating ...

An Efficient Motion Planning Algorithm for Stochastic Dynamic Systems with Constraints on Probability of Failure
When controlling dynamic systems, such as mobile robots in uncertain environments, there is a trade off between risk and reward. For example, a race car can turn a corner faster b...

Online Planning Algorithms for POMDPs
Partially Observable Markov Decision Processes (POMDPs) provide a rich framework for sequential decision-making under uncertainty in stochastic domains. However, solving a POMDP i...

Localization from Incomplete Noisy Distance Measurements
—We consider the problem of positioning a cloud of points in the Euclidean space Rd , from noisy measurements of a subset of pairwise distances. This task has applications in var...

Cost-based variable-length-gram selection for string collections to support approximate queries efficiently
Approximate queries on a collection of strings are important in many applications such as record linkage, spell checking, and Web search, where inconsistencies and errors exist in...
