We present a new optimization technique that yields the first FPTAS for several geometric problems. These problems reduce to optimizing a sum of non-negative, constant description...
In this work, we study a visual data mining problem: Given a set of discovered overlapping submatrices of interest, how can we order the rows and columns of the data matrix to bes...

The problem of partitioning a partially ordered set into a minimum number of chains is a well-known problem. In this paper we study a generalization of this problem, where we not ...
Recombination is an important evolutionary mechanism responsible for the genetic diversity in humans and other organisms. Recently, there has been extensive research on understandi...
Mobile sensors cover more area over a period of time than the same number of stationary sensors. However, the quality of coverage achieved by mobile sensors depends on the velocit...
