A Windowed Weighted Approach for Approximate Cyclic String Matching
A method for measuring dissimilarities between cyclic strings is introduced. It computes a weighted mean between two (lower and upper) bounds of the exact cyclic edit distance, wh...

Improved Primal-Dual Approximation Algorithm for the Connected Facility Location Problem
In the Connected Facility Location(ConFL) problem, we are given a graph G = (V, E) with nonnegative edge cost ce on the edges, a set of facilities F V , a set of demands, i.e., cl...

Testing Non-uniform k-Wise Independent Distributions over Product Spaces
A discrete distribution D over Σ1 × · · · × Σn is called (non-uniform) k-wise independent if for any set of k indexes {i1, . . . , ik} and for any z1 ∈ Σi1 , . . . , zk ...
