Compilation Complexity of Common Voting Rules
In computational social choice, one important problem is to take the votes of a subelectorate (subset of the voters), and summarize them using a small number of bits. This needs t...

On The Marriage of Lp-norms and Edit Distance
Existing studies on time series are based on two categories of distance functions. The first category consists of the Lp-norms. They are metric distance functions but cannot supp...

An optimal maximal independent set algorithm for bounded-independence graphs
We present a novel distributed algorithm for the maximal independent set (MIS) problem.1 On bounded-independence graphs (BIG) our deterministic algorithm finishes in O(log n) time,...

Quasiconvex Optimization for Robust Geometric Reconstruction
Geometric reconstruction problems in computer vision are often solved by minimizing a cost function that combines the reprojection errors in the 2D images. In this paper, we show t...

Sparse SOS Relaxations for Minimizing Functions that are Summations of Small Polynomials
This paper discusses how to find the global minimum of functions that are summations of small polynomials ("small" means involving a small number of variables). Some spa...
