Network Design via Core Detouring for Problems without a Core
Some of the currently best-known approximation algorithms for network design are based on random sampling. One of the key steps of such algorithms is connecting a set of source nod...

Multiagent Planning with Factored MDPs
We present a principled and efficient planning algorithm for cooperative multiagent dynamic systems. A striking feature of our method is that the coordination and communication be...

The Bloomier filter: an efficient data structure for static support lookup tables
We introduce the Bloomier filter, a data structure for compactly encoding a function with static support in order to support approximate evaluation queries. Our construction gener...

Fast computation of the median by successive binning
In many important problems, one uses the median instead of the mean to estimate a population's center, since the former is more robust. But in general, computing the median i...
