This paper presents a method to speed up support vector classification, especially important when data is highdimensional. Unlike previous approaches which focus on less support v...
Recently, Monte-Carlo Tree Search (MCTS) has advanced the field of computer Go substantially. In the game of Lines of Action (LOA), which has been dominated in the past by αβ, M...
Consider a convex set P in IRd and a piecewise polynomial concave function F: P IR. Let A be an algorithm that given a point x IRd computes F(x) if x P, or returns a concave po...
The Tutte polynomial of a graph, also known as the partition function of the q-state Potts model, is a 2-variable polynomial graph invariant of considerable importance in both comb...
We present worst-case lower bounds on the minimum size of a binary space partition (BSP) tree as a function of its height, for a set S of n axis-parallel line segments in the plan...
