Display ads on the Internet are increasingly sold via ad exchanges such as RightMedia, AdECN and Doubleclick Ad Exchange. These exchanges allow real-time bidding, that is, each ti...
We discuss the problem of optimally "finishing" a partially sequenced, reconstructed DNA segment. At first sight, this appears to be computationally hard. We construct a...
Dynamic textures (DT) are videos of non-rigid dynamical objects, such as fire and waves, which constantly change their shape and appearance over time. Most of the prior work on DT ...
The maximum subsequence problem finds the contiguous subsequence of n real numbers with the highest sum. This is an important problem that arises in several contexts in Computatio...
We consider the problem of tiling a segment {0, . . . , n} of the discrete line. More precisely, we ought to characterize the structure of the patterns that tile a segment and thei...
