Abstract--Wireless networks, especially mobile ad hoc networks (MANET) and cognitive radio networks (CRN), are facing two new challenges beyond traditional random network model: op...
We study the positive Bergman complex B+ (M) of an oriented matroid M, which is a certain subcomplex of the Bergman complex B(M) of the underlying unoriented matroid M. The positiv...

We consider the (1+λ) evolution strategy, an evolutionary algorithm for minimization in Rn , using isotropic mutations. Thus, for instance, Gaussian mutations adapted by the 1/5-r...
We describe a new face detection algorithm based on a hierarchy of support vector classifiers (SVMs) designed for efficient computation. The hierarchy serves as a platform for a c...
We study the expected size of the 2D visibility complex of randomly distributed objects in the plane. We prove that the asymptotic expected number of free bitangents (which corres...
