We present an O( √ n log n)-approximation algorithm for the problem of finding the sparsest spanner of a given directed graph G on n vertices. A spanner of a graph is a sparse ...

We examine the problem of retrieving the top-m ranked items from a large collection, randomly distributed across an n-node system. In order to retrieve the top m overall, we must ...
Interpolation is required in many medical image processing operations. From sampling theory, it follows that the ideal interpolation kernel is the sinc function, which is of infin...

An agent with limited consumable execution resources needs policies that attempt to achieve good performance while respecting these limitations. Otherwise, an agent (such as a pla...
