Symbolic Dynamic Programming for First-order POMDPs
Partially-observable Markov decision processes (POMDPs) provide a powerful model for sequential decision-making problems with partially-observed state and are known to have (appro...

LCS-TRIM: Dynamic Programming Meets XML Indexing and Querying
In this article, we propose a new approach for querying and indexing a database of trees with specific applications to XML datasets. Our approach relies on representing both the q...

Enhancing histograms by tree-like bucket indices
Histograms are used to summarize the contents of relations into a number of buckets for the estimation of query result sizes. Several techniques (e.g., MaxDiff and V-Optimal) have ...

Near optimal multiple alignment within a band in polynomial time
Multiple sequence alignment is a fundamental problem in computational biology. Because of its notorious difficulties, aligning sequences within a constant band (c-diagonal) is a ...

Counting Inversions, Offline Orthogonal Range Counting, and Related Problems
We give an O(n lg n)-time algorithm for counting the number of inversions in a permutation on n elements. This improves a long-standing previous bound of O(n lg n/ lg lg n) that ...
