How to get close to the median shape
In this paper, we study the problem of L1-fitting a shape to a set of point, where the target is to minimize the sum of distances of the points to the shape, or alternatively the...

A Hybrid Data Mining Metaheuristic for the p-Median Problem.
Metaheuristics represent an important class of techniques to solve, approximately, hard combinatorial optimization problems for which the use of exact methods is impractical. In t...

Better Bounds for Incremental Medians
In the incremental version of the well-known k-median problem the objective is to compute an incremental sequence of facility sets F1 ⊆ F2 ⊆ .... ⊆ Fn, where each Fk contain...

Online Maintenance of k-Medians and k-Covers on a Line
The standard dynamic programming solution to finding k-medians on a line with n nodes requires O(kn2 ) time. Dynamic programming speedup techniques, e.g., use of the quadrangle i...

Generalized vs Set Median Strings for Histogram-Based Distances: Algorithms and Classification Results in the Image Domain
We compare different statistical characterizations of a set of strings, for three different histogram-based distances. Given a distance, a set of strings may be characterized by it...
