We find “combinatorially optimal” (guaranteed by the degree-sequence alone) independent sets for graphs and hypergraps in linear space in the semi-streaming model. We also pr...
It is well known that the maximum weighted independent set (MWIS) problem is NP-complete. Moreover, optimal scheduling in wireless networks requires solving a MWIS problem. Conseq...
Bayesian KnowledgeBases (BKB)are a rule-based probabilistic modelthat extend BayesNetworks(BN), by allowing context-sensitive independenceand cycles in the directed graph. BKBshav...
We propose a category-independent method to produce a bag of regions and rank them, such that top-ranked regions are likely to be good segmentations of different objects. Our key ...
We here describe a view-based system for the pose-independent representation of objects without making reference to 3-D models. Input to the system is a collection of pictures cov...
