The Black-Box Complexity of Nearest Neighbor Search
We define a natural notion of efficiency for approximate nearest-neighbor (ANN) search in general n-point metric spaces, namely the existence of a randomized algorithm which answ...

Planning with Durative Actions in Stochastic Domains
Probabilistic planning problems are typically modeled as a Markov Decision Process (MDP). MDPs, while an otherwise expressive model, allow only for sequential, non-durative action...

Minimizing Packet Loss by Optimizing OSPF Weights Using Online Simulation
In this paper, we present a scheme for minimizing packet loss in OSPF networks by optimizing link weights using Online Simulation. We have chosen packet loss rate in the network a...
