The natural relaxation for the Group Steiner Tree problem, as well as for its generalization, the Directed Steiner Tree problem, is a flow-based linear programming relaxation. We...

In this paper we eliminate the need for parameter estimation associated with the set covering machine (SCM) by directly minimizing generalization error bounds. Firstly, we consider...
We study simple greedy approximation algorithms for general class of integer packing problems. We provide a novel analysis based on the duality theory of linear programming. This e...
In some application domains, such as medical imaging, the objects that compose the scene are known as well as some of their properties and their spatial arrangement. We can take ad...

This paper addresses the problem of numerically finding an optimal path for a robot with non-holonomic constraints. A car like robot, whose turning radius is lower bounded is cons...
