We extend the binary search technique to searching in trees. We consider two models of queries: questions about vertices and questions about edges. We present a general approach t...
This paper proposes a method of rate-distortion optimisation of an algorithm for compressing dynamic 3D triangle meshes. Although many articles regarding compression methods for th...
We study the problem of minimizing the expected cost of binary searching for data where the access cost is not fixed and depends on the last accessed element, such as data stored i...

Let us consider an ordered vector A[1 : n]. If the cost of testing each position is similar, then the standard binary search is the best strategy to search the vector. This is true...
We derive a branch-and-bound algorithm to find an optimal inversion median of three signed permutations. The algorithm prunes to manageable size an extremely large search tree usi...
