Convex polygons in the plane can be defined explicitly as an ordered list of vertices, or given implicitly, for example by a list of linear constraints. The latter representation h...
Decentralized planning in uncertain environments is a complex task generally dealt with by using a decision-theoretic approach, mainly through the framework of Decentralized Parti...
We consider the approximate nearest neighbour search problem on the Hamming cube {0, 1}d. We show that a randomised cell probe algorithm that uses polynomial storage and word size...
Abstract. We explore a new general-purpose heuristic for nding highquality solutions to hard optimization problems. The method, called extremal optimization, is inspired by self-or...

Abstract. In the late nineties, Erickson proved a remarkable lower bound on the decision tree complexity of one of the central problems of computational geometry: given n numbers, ...
