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...
In this paper a planning framework based on Ant Colony Optimization techniques is presented. Optimal planning is a very hard computational problem which has been coped with differe...

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...
Abstract. Most recent papers addressing the algorithmic problem of allocating advertisement space for keywords in sponsored search auctions assume that pricing is done via a first...

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...
