We establish a nonlinear lower bound for halfplane range searching over a group. Specifically, we show that summing up the weights of n (weighted) points within n halfplanes requir...
Computer visualization has advanced dramatically over the last few years, partially driven by the exploding video game market. 3D hardware acceleration has reached the point where...
Abstract. We are interested in efficient algorithms for generating random samples from geometric objects such as Riemannian manifolds. As a step in this direction, we consider the ...
In this work we analyze the complexity of local broadcasting in the physical interference model. We present two distributed randomized algorithms: one that assumes that each node ...

Background: A good scoring function is essential for molecular docking computations. In conventional scoring functions, energy terms modeling pairwise interactions are cumulativel...
