We study the multi-dimensional version of the bin packing problem with conflicts. We are given a set of squares V = {1, 2, . . . , n} with sides s1, s2, . . . , sn [0, 1] and a co...
This paper presents an analysis of written and electronic records that document the collaborative process of packing museum artifacts in preparation for a move. The majority of da...
Many combinatorial optimization problems such as the bin packing and multiple knapsack problems involve assigning a set of discrete objects to multiple containers. These problems ...
Consider the symmetric group Sn equipped with the Hamming metric dH . Packing and covering problems in the finite metric space (Sn, dH ) are surveyed, including a combination of b...
In this paper, we address the problem of finding the pre-image of a feature vector in the feature space induced by a kernel. This is of central importance in some kernel applicatio...
