Semidefinite programming based approximation algorithms, such as the Goemans and Williamson approximation algorithm for the MAX CUT problem, are usually shown to have certain perf...
Abstract. Ordering constraints are analogous to instances of the satisfiability problem in conjunctive normalform, but instead of a boolean assignment we consider a linear orderin...
Abstract. We devise an efficient protocol by which a series of twoperson games Gi with unique winning strategies can be combined into a single game G with unique winning strategy, ...
The search for finite-state controllers for partially observable Markov decision processes (POMDPs) is often based on approaches like gradient ascent, attractive because of their ...
This paper explores the possibility of a linear model as a solution to the problem of appearance-based pose estimation. The parametric eigenspace method (or its extensions that ar...
