Collusion-aware traitor tracing in multimedia fingerprinting using sparse signal approximation
We pose the problem of tracing traitors, who have colluded to circumvent a multimedia fingerprinting system, as a sparse underdetermined linear problem. We propose a range of det...

A local search approximation algorithm for k-means clustering
In k-means clustering we are given a set of n data points in d-dimensional space d and an integer k, and the problem is to determine a set of k points in d , called centers, to mi...
