Abstract. Given a simple n-sided polygon in the plane with a boundary partitioned into subchains some of which are convex and colored, we consider the following problem: Which is t...
We show how to determine whether the edit distance between two given strings is small in sublinear time. Specifically, we present a test which, given two n-character strings A and...
Existing algorithms for discrete partially observable Markov decision processes can at best solve problems of a few thousand states due to two important sources of intractability:...
The problem of fitting a straight line to a finite collection of points in the plane is an important problem in statistical estimation. Robust estimators are widely used because...

The existing solutions to privacy preserving publication can be classified into the theoretical and heuristic categories. The former guarantees provably low information loss, whe...
