In this paper, we propose a logical approach to represent and reason about different time granularities. We identify a time granularity as a discrete infinite sequence of time po...
The relationship between two well established formalisms for temporal reasoning is first investigated, namely between Allen's interval algebra (or Allen's temporal logic,...
We consider lossy source compression of a binary symmetric source using polar codes and the low-complexity successive encoding algorithm. It was recently shown by Arikan that polar...
We consider a quadratic programming (QP) problem (Π) of the form min xT Cx subject to Ax ≥ b where C ∈ Rn×n + , rank(C) = 1 and A ∈ Rm×n , b ∈ Rm . We present an FPTAS ...
A large fraction of the URLs on the web contain duplicate (or near-duplicate) content. De-duping URLs is an extremely important problem for search engines, since all the principal...
