Abstract--Large-margin methods, such as support vector machines (SVMs), have been very successful in classification problems. Recently, maximum margin discriminant analysis (MMDA) ...
This paper addresses the following optimization problem in a plane multihop wireless networks under the physical interference model: From a given a set of communication links whose...
This paper deals with the maximum-weight 2-path packing problem (M2PP), which is the problem of computing a set of vertex-disjoint paths of length 2 in a given edge-weighted compl...
Abstract— Controlling the topology of a wireless ad hoc network is very important from the point of view of performance. One known technique for controlling the topology is throu...
We propose a new boosting algorithm for bipartite ranking problems. Our boosting algorithm, called SoftRankBoost, is a modification of RankBoost which maintains only smooth distri...
