This paper connects two fundamental ideas from theoretical computer science: hard-core set construction, a type of hardness amplification from computational complexity, and boosti...
Given A := {a1, . . . , am} Rn and > 0, we propose and analyze two algorithms for the problem of computing a (1 + )-approximation to the radius of the minimum enclosing ball o...
In this paper we propose a scheme for ball detection and tracking in broadcast soccer video. There are two alternate procedures in the scheme: ball detection and ball tracking. In ...
Let B be a set of n unit balls in R3 . We show that the combinatorial complexity of the space of lines in R3 that avoid all the balls of B is O(n3+ε ), for any ε > 0. This re...
