New Sampling-Based Summary Statistics for Improving Approximate Query Answers
In large data recording and warehousing environments, it is often advantageous to provide fast, approximate answers to queries, whenever possible. Before DBMSs providing highly-ac...

Maintaining a Large Matching or a Small Vertex Cover
We consider the problem of maintaining a large matching or a small vertex cover in a dynamically changing graph. Each update to the graph is either an edge deletion or an edge ins...

An FPTAS for Flows over Time with Aggregate Arc Capacities
We study flows over time in networks with transit times on the arcs. Transit times describe how long it takes to traverse an arc. A flow over time specifies for each arc a time-dep...

Convergence of a distributed parameter estimator for sensor networks with local averaging of the estimates
The paper addresses the convergence of a decentralized Robbins-Monro algorithm for networks of agents. This algorithm combines local stochastic approximation steps for finding th...

A Spatially Varying PSF-based Prior for Alpha Matting
In this paper we considerably improve on a state-of-theart alpha matting approach by incorporating a new prior which is based on the image formation process. In particular, we mod...
