We study a generalization of the k-median problem with respect to an arbitrary dissimilarity measure D. Given a finite set P of size n, our goal is to find a set C of size k such t...
We consider adding k shortcut edges (i.e. edges of small fixed length δ ≥ 0) to a graph so as to minimize the weighted average shortest path distance over all pairs of vertices...
Instead of the conventional background and foreground definition, we propose a novel method that decomposes a scene into time-varying background and foreground intrinsic images. T...
Abstract. Genome doubling simultaneously doubles all genetic markers. Genome rearrangement phylogenetics requires that all genomes analyzed have the same set of orthologs, so that ...
Given two or more parties possessing large, confidential datasets, we consider the problem of securely computing the kth -ranked element of the union of the datasets, e.g. the med...
