Linear Programming Boosting via Column Generation
We examine linear program (LP) approaches to boosting and demonstrate their efficient solution using LPBoost, a column generation based simplex method. We formulate the problem as...

Qualitative Visualization of Distance Information
Different types of two- and three-dimensional representations of a finite metric space are studied that focus on the accurate representation of the linear order among the distance...

Hardness vs. Randomness within Alternating Time
We study the complexity of building pseudorandom generators (PRGs) with logarithmic seed length from hard functions. We show that, starting from a function f : {0, 1}l → {0, 1} ...

Bounded-depth circuits cannot sample good codes
We study a variant of the classical circuit-lower-bound problems: proving lower bounds for sampling distributions given random bits. We prove a lower bound of 1 - 1/n(1) on the st...

Partitioning a weighted partial order
The problem of partitioning a partially ordered set into a minimum number of chains is a well-known problem. In this paper we study a generalization of this problem, where we not ...
