Learning Globally Consistent Maps by Relaxation
Mobile robots require the ability to build their own maps to operate in unknown environments. A fundamental problem is that odometry-based dead reckoning cannot be used to assign ...

Finding Metric Structure in Information Theoretic Clustering
We study the problem of clustering discrete probability distributions with respect to the Kullback-Leibler (KL) divergence. This problem arises naturally in many applications. Our...

Rounding Algorithms for a Geometric Embedding of Minimum Multiway Cut
Given an undirected graph with edge costs and a subset of k ≥ 3 nodes called terminals, a multiway, or k-way, cut is a subset of the edges whose removal disconnects each termina...

Statistical QoS Guarantee and Energy-Efficiency in Web Server Clusters
In this paper we study the soft real-time web cluster architecture needed to support e-commerce and related applications. Our testbed is based on an industry standard, which defin...

Relaxed Spanners for Directed Disk Graphs
Let (V, δ) be a finite metric space, where V is a set of n points and δ is a distance function defined for these points. Assume that (V, δ) has a constant doubling dimension d...
