Improved Approximation for the Directed Spanner Problem
We present an O( √ n log n)-approximation algorithm for the problem of finding the sparsest spanner of a given directed graph G on n vertices. A spanner of a graph is a sparse ...

On MBR Approximation of Histories for Historical Queries: Expectations and Limitations
Traditional approaches for efficiently processing historical queries, where a history is a multidimensional timeseries, employ a two step filter-and-refine scheme. In the filter s...

Fast Contour Matching Using Approximate Earth Mover's Distance
Weighted graph matching is a good way to align a pair of shapes represented by a set of descriptive local features; the set of correspondences produced by the minimum cost matchin...

Bounds on the Bethe Free Energy for Gaussian Networks
We address the problem of computing approximate marginals in Gaussian probabilistic models by using mean field and fractional Bethe approximations. As an extension of Welling and ...

The Optimal Human Ventral Stream from Estimates of the Complexity of Visual Objects
The part of the primate visual cortex responsible for the recognition of objects is parcelled into about a dozen areas organized somewhat hierarchically (the region is called the v...
