In this paper we deal with the problem of finding an optimal query execution plan in database systems. We improve the analysis of a polynomial-time approximation algorithm due to M...
We investigate the problem of finding an unknown cut through querying vertices of a graph G. Our complexity measure is the number of submitted queries. To avoid some worst cases, ...
This paper presents an algorithm for recovering the globally optimal 2D human figure detection using a loopy graph model. This is computationally challenging because the time comp...
We present a faster method of solving optimal planning problems and show that our solution performs up to an order of magnitude faster than Satplan on a variety of problems from t...
Quantum algorithms for graph problems are considered, both in the adjacency matrix model and in an adjacency list-like array model. We give almost tight lower and upper bounds for ...
