This paper shows that the minimum ratio canceling algorithm of Wallacher (1989) (and a faster relaxed version) can be generalized to an algorithm for general linear programs with ...
This paper focuses on parallel query optimization. We consider the operator problem and introduce a new class of execution strategies called Linear-Oriented Bushy Trees (LBTs). Co...
We introduce exponential search trees as a novel technique for converting static polynomial space search structures for ordered sets into fully-dynamic linear space data structure...
We show that the mistake bound for predicting the nodes of an arbitrary weighted graph is characterized (up to logarithmic factors) by the cutsize of a random spanning tree of the...
We propose a classification method based on a decision tree whose nodes consist of linear Support Vector Machines (SVMs). Each node defines a decision hyperplane that classifies p...
