A nearly optimal oracle for avoiding failed vertices and edges
We present an improved oracle for the distance sensitivity problem. The goal is to preprocess a directed graph G = (V, E) with non-negative edge weights to answer queries of the f...

Joint space-time image sequence segmentation based on volume competition and level sets
In this paper, we address the issue of joint space-time segmentation of image sequences. Typical approaches to such segmentation consider two image frames at a time, and perform t...

Guard placement for efficient point-in-polygon proofs
We consider the problem of placing a small number of angle guards inside a simple polygon P so as to provide efficient proofs that any given point is inside P. Each angle guard vi...

Coloring Sparse Random k-Colorable Graphs in Polynomial Expected Time
Abstract. Feige and Kilian [5] showed that finding reasonable approximative solutions to the coloring problem on graphs is hard. This motivates the quest for algorithms that eithe...

The 2-center problem in three dimensions
Let P be a set of n points in R3 . The 2-center problem for P is to find two congruent balls of the minimum radius whose union covers P. We present two randomized algorithms for ...
