The barycenter heuristic is often used to solve the NP-hard two-layer edge crossing minimization problem. It is well-known that the barycenter heuristic can give solutions as bad a...
We consider the problem of sequential hypothesis testing when the exact pdfs are not known but instead a set of iid samples are used to describe the hypotheses. We modify the clas...
We present a randomized algorithm for computing portions of an arrangement of n arcs in the plane, each pair of which intersect in at most t points. We use this algorithm to perfo...
Constructing sensor barriers to detect intruders crossing a randomly-deployed sensor network is an important problem. Early results have shown how to construct sensor barriers to ...
