An Approximation Algorithm for Shortest Descending Paths
A path from s to t on a polyhedral terrain is descending if the height of a point p never increases while we move p along the path from s to t. No efficient algorithm is known to ...

New Routes from Minimal Approximation Error to Principal Components
We introduce two new methods of deriving the classical PCA in the framework of minimizing the mean square error upon performing a lower-dimensional approximation of the data. These...
