The k-forest problem is a common generalization of both the k-MST and the dense-k-subgraph problems. Formally, given a metric space on n vertices V , with m demand pairs ⊆ V × ...
Abstract. AND/OR search spaces have recently been introduced as a unifying paradigm for advanced algorithmic schemes for graphical models. The main virtue of this representation is...
We describe the first known algorithm for efficiently maintaining a Binary Space Partition (BSP) for n continuously moving segments in the plane, whose interiors remain disjoint...

Abstract. In a decision tree model, (n log2 n m i=1 ni log2 ni + n) is known to be a lower bound for sorting a multiset of size n containing m distinct elements, where the ith dist...
Algorithms such as Least Median of Squares (LMedS) and Random Sample Consensus (RANSAC) have been very successful for low-dimensional robust regression problems. However, the comb...
