The Quantum Probability Ranking Principle (QPRP) has been recently proposed, and accounts for interdependent document relevance when ranking. However, to be instantiated, the QPRP...
The part of the primate visual cortex responsible for the recognition of objects is parcelled into about a dozen areas organized somewhat hierarchically (the region is called the v...
We apply and extend the priority algorithm framework introduced by Borodin, Nielsen, and Rackoff to define "greedy-like" algorithms for the (uncapacitated) facility locat...
The Fibonacci dimension fdim(G) of a graph G is introduced as the smallest integer f such that G admits an isometric embedding into f , the f-dimensional Fibonacci cube. We give b...
We address the problem of minimizing a convex function over the space of large matrices with low rank. While this optimization problem is hard in general, we propose an efficient...
