Nearly Optimal Expected-Case Planar Point Location
We consider the planar point location problem from the perspective of expected search time. We are given a planar polygonal subdivision S and for each polygon of the subdivision t...

Computing Exact Shadow Irradiance Using Splines
We present a solution to the general problem of characterizing shadows in scenes involving a uniform polygonal area emitter and a polygonal occluder in arbitrary position by manif...

Weakly learning DNF and characterizing statistical query learning using Fourier analysis
We present new results on the well-studied problem of learning DNF expressions. We prove that an algorithm due to Kushilevitz and Mansour [13] can be used to weakly learn DNF form...

Efficient Expected-Case Algorithms for Planar Point Location
Planar point location is among the most fundamental search problems in computational geometry. Although this problem has been heavily studied from the perspective of worst-case que...
