Body Localization in Still Images Using Hierarchical Models and Hybrid Search
We present a 3-level hierarchical model for localizing human bodies in still images from arbitrary viewpoints. We first fit a simple tree-structured model defined on a small landm...

PTAS for geometric hitting set problems via local search
We consider the problem of computing minimum geometric hitting sets in which, given a set of geometric objects and a set of points, the goal is to compute the smallest subset of p...

Competitive Online Approximation of the Optimal Search Ratio
How efficiently can we search an unknown environment for a goal in unknown position? How much would it help if the environment were known? We answer these questions for simple poly...
