Approximating Transitive Reductions for Directed Networks
Abstract. We consider minimum equivalent digraph problem, its maximum optimization variant and some non-trivial extensions of these two types of problems motivated by biological an...

Real Number Calculations and Theorem Proving
Wouldn’t it be nice to be able to conveniently use ordinary real number expressions within proof assistants? In this paper we outline how this can be done within a theorem provin...

Deterministic sampling and range counting in geometric data streams
We present memory-efficient deterministic algorithms for constructing -nets and -approximations of streams of geometric data. Unlike probabilistic approaches, these deterministic...

Using Constraint Programming to Solve the Maximum Clique Problem
This paper aims to show that Constraint Programming can be an efficient technique to solve a well-known combinatorial optimization problem: the search for a maximum clique in a gra...

Near-Optimal Reinforcement Learning in Polynomial Time
We present new algorithms for reinforcement learning, and prove that they have polynomial bounds on the resources required to achieve near-optimal return in general Markov decisio...
