The problem of computing the chromatic number of a P5-free graph (a graph which contains no path on 5 vertices as an induced subgraph) is known to be NP-hard. However, we show tha...
Abstract. Feige and Kilian [5] showed that finding reasonable approximative solutions to the coloring problem on graphs is hard. This motivates the quest for algorithms that eithe...
Finding discords in time series database is an important problem in a great variety of applications, such as space shuttle telemetry, mechanical industry, biomedicine, and financ...

Abstract. An optimal probabilistic-planning algorithm solves a problem, usually modeled by a Markov decision process, by finding its optimal policy. In this paper, we study the k ...
The problem to determine whether a given k-colored graph is a subgraph of a properly colored interval graph has an application in DNA physical mapping. In this paper, we study the...
