In this paper, we consider Steiner forest and its generalizations, prize-collecting Steiner forest and k-Steiner forest, when the vertices of the input graph are points in the Euc...
Design using free-form developable surfaces plays an important role in manufacturing industry. Currently most commercial systems can only support converting free-form surfaces int...
When modeling real-world decision-theoretic planning problems in the Markov decision process (MDP) framework, it is often impossible to obtain a completely accurate estimate of tr...
