Consider a two-party quantum communication protocol for computing some function f : {0, 1}n × {0, 1}n → Z. We show that the first message of P can be compressed to O(k) classi...
Compiler writers have crafted many heuristics over the years to approximately solve NP-hard problems efficiently. Finding a heuristic that performs well on a broad range of applic...

Abstract. Phylogeny reconstruction from molecular data poses complex optimization problems: almost all optimization models are NP-hard and thus computationally intractable. Yet app...
Abstract We compare the performance of two database selection algorithms reported in the literature. Their performance is compared using a common testbed designed specifically for ...

We introduce new techniques for modelling with interpolating implicit surfaces. This form of implicit surface was first used for problems of surface reconstruction [24] and shape ...
