We study the complexity of approximating the VC dimension of a collection of sets, when the sets are encoded succinctly by a small circuit. We show that this problem is • Σp 3-...
Abstract. We give an fpt approximation algorithm for the directed vertex disjoint cycle problem. Given a directed graph G with n vertices and a positive integer k, the algorithm co...
Efficient techniques for the manipulation of Binary Decision Diagrams (BDDs) are key to the success of formal verification tools. Recent advances in reachability analysis and mode...

Many real life optimization problems contain both hard and soft constraints, as well as qualitative conditional preferences. However, there is no single formalism to specify all t...

Convex relaxation techniques have become a popular approach to image segmentation as they allow to compute solutions independent of initialization to a variety of image segmentati...
