An Optimal Algorithm for the k-Fixed-Endpoint Path Cover on Proper Interval Graphs
In this paper we consider the k-fixed-endpoint path cover problem on proper interval graphs, which is a generalization of the path cover problem. Given a graph G and a set T of k v...

Exact Cover with light
We suggest a new, unconventional, way for solving the YES/NO version of the Exact Cover problem by using the massive parallelism of light. The idea is to build a device which can ...

What makes some POMDP problems easy to approximate?
Point-based algorithms have been surprisingly successful in computing approximately optimal solutions for partially observable Markov decision processes (POMDPs) in high dimension...
