Abstract. We study the complexity of several coloring problems on graphs, parameterized by the treewidth t of the graph: (1) The list chromatic number χl(G) of a graph G is defin...

One common characterization of how simple hill-climbing optimization methods can fail is that they become trapped in local optima - a state where no small modi cation of the curren...
The success of popular algorithms such as k-means clustering or nearest neighbor searches depend on the assumption that the underlying distance functions reflect domain-specific n...
Abstract-- The trans-genomic query (TGQ) problem -- enabling the free query of biological information, even across genomes -- is a central challenge facing bioinformatics. Solution...

Abstract: Schnorr's algorithm for finding an approximation for the shortest nonzero vector in an n-dimensional lattice depends on a parameter k. He proved that for a fixed k ...
