This paper extends the set of problems for which a global solution can be found using modern optimization methods. In particular, the method is applied to estimation of the essent...
An algebraic curve is defined as the zero set of a multivariate polynomial. We consider the problem of fitting an algebraic curve to a set of vectors given an additional set of v...

We solve instances of a general class of problems defined as follows: Preprocess a set S of possibly weighted colored geometric objects (e.g. points/orthogonal segments/rectangles...
A method is introduced to learn and represent similarity with linear operators in kernel induced Hilbert spaces. Transferring error bounds for vector valued large-margin classifie...
Two long-open problems have been solved: (1) every sufficiently large planar point set in general position contains the vertices of an empty hexagon; (2) every finite collection o...
