We develop algorithms for computing the smallest enclosing ball of a set of n balls in d-dimensional space. Unlike previous methods, we explicitly address small cases (n ≤ d + 1...
We present an approximation scheme for optimizing certain Quadratic Integer Programming problems with positive semidefinite objective functions and global linear constraints. Thi...
An ad hoc data format is any non-standard, semi-structured data format for which robust data processing tools are not available. In this paper, we present ANNE, a new kind of mark...
Bayesian networks, equivalently graphical Markov models determined by acyclic digraphs or ADGs (also called directed acyclic graphs or dags), have proved to be both effective and ...
This paper defines PolyAML, a typed functional, aspect-oriented programming language. The main contribution of PolyAML is the seamless integration of polymorphism, run-time type a...
