Abstract. In the late nineties, Erickson proved a remarkable lower bound on the decision tree complexity of one of the central problems of computational geometry: given n numbers, ...
Existing temporal pattern mining assumes that events do not have any duration. However, events in many real world applications have durations, and the relationships among these ev...
This paper proposes a novel recombination scheme for evolutionary algorithms, which can guide the new population generation towards the maximum increase of the objective function....
In the frequency assignment problem we are given a graph representing a wireless network and a sequence of requests, where each request is associated with a vertex. Each request h...
We propose approximation algorithms under game-theoretic considerations. We indroduce and study the general covering problem which is a natural generalization of the well-studied m...
