On finding a guard that sees most and a shop that sells most
We present a near-quadratic time algorithm that computes a point inside a simple polygon P having approximately the largest visibility polygon inside P, and a nearlinear time algo...

Coresets and Sketches for High Dimensional Subspace Approximation Problems
We consider the problem of approximating a set P of n points in Rd by a j-dimensional subspace under the p measure, in which we wish to minimize the sum of p distances from each p...

Online point location in planar arrangements and its applications
Recently, Har-Peled [HP99b] presented a new randomized technique for online construction of the zone of a curve in a planar arrangement of arcs. In this paper, we present several ...

Covering a Set of Points with a Minimum Number of Lines
We consider the minimum line covering problem: given a set S of n points in the plane, we want to find the smallest number l of straight lines needed to cover all n points in S. W...

Point-Based Policy Iteration
We describe a point-based policy iteration (PBPI) algorithm for infinite-horizon POMDPs. PBPI replaces the exact policy improvement step of Hansen’s policy iteration with point...
