Fast direct policy evaluation using multiscale analysis of Markov diffusion processes
Policy evaluation is a critical step in the approximate solution of large Markov decision processes (MDPs), typically requiring O(|S|3 ) to directly solve the Bellman system of |S...

FOARS: FLUTE based obstacle-avoiding rectilinear steiner tree construction
Obstacle-avoiding rectilinear Steiner minimal tree (OARSMT) construction is becoming one of the most sought after problems in modern design flow. In this paper we present FOARS, ...

A General Approximation Technique for Constrained Forest Problems
We present a general approximation technique for a large class of graph problems. Our technique mostly applies to problems of covering, at minimum cost, the vertices of a graph wit...

Detailed Network Measurements Using Sparse Graph Counters: The Theory
— Measuring network flow sizes is important for tasks like accounting/billing, network forensics and security. Per-flow accounting is considered hard because it requires that m...

Hierarchical Eigensolver for Transition Matrices in Spectral Methods
We show how to build hierarchical, reduced-rank representation for large stochastic matrices and use this representation to design an efficient algorithm for computing the largest...
