We revisit one of the most fundamental classes of data structure problems in computational geometry: range searching. Back in SoCG’92, Matouˇsek gave a partition tree method fo...
We significantly improve known time bounds for solving the minimum cut problem on undirected graphs. We use a "semiduality" between minimum cuts and maximum spanning tree...
A problem arising in statistical data analysis and pattern recognition is to find a longest interval free of data points, given a set of data points in the unit interval. We use t...
Multi-FPGA systems are used as custom computing machines to solve compute intensive problems and also in the verification and prototyping of large circuits. In this paper, we addr...
Abstract. We give a (ln n + 1)-approximation for the decision tree (DT) problem. An instance of DT is a set of m binary tests T = (T1, . . . , Tm) and a set of n items X = (X1, . ....
