Abstract. The problem of Subgraph Isomorphism is defined as follows: Given a pattern H and a host graph G on n vertices, does G contain a subgraph that is isomorphic to H? Eppstei...
— This paper describes a novel, ultra-fast heuristic algorithm to address an NP-hard optimization problem. One of its significances is that, for the first time, the paper shows...
We present a simple algorithm for the maximum spanning star forest problem. We take advantage of the fact that the problem is a special case of complementary set cover and we adapt...

We consider the problem of efficiently computing weighted proximity best-joins over multiple lists, with applications in information retrieval and extraction. We are given a multi-...

Abstract. We propose a randomized method for general convex optimization problems; namely, the minimization of a linear function over a convex body. The idea is to generate N rando...
