TiMDPpoly: An Improved Method for Solving Time-Dependent MDPs
We introduce TiMDPpoly, an algorithm designed to solve planning problems with durative actions, under probabilistic uncertainty, in a non-stationary, continuous-time context. Miss...

Tight results for clustering and summarizing data streams
In this paper we investigate algorithms and lower bounds for summarization problems over a single pass data stream. In particular we focus on histogram construction and K-center c...

Approximate common divisors via lattices
We analyze the multivariate generalization of Howgrave-Graham’s algorithm for the approximate common divisor problem. In the m-variable case with modulus N and approximate common...

Incentive analysis of approximately efficient allocation algorithms
We present a series of results providing evidence that the incentive problem with VCG-based mechanisms is not very severe. Our first result uses average-case analysis to show that ...
