Motivated by several applications, we introduce various distance measures between “top k lists.” Some of these distance measures are metrics, while others are not. For each of...
The main problem in any model-building situation is to choose from a large set of covariates those that should be included in the "best" model. A decision to keep a vari...

We consider the problem of amplifying uniform average-case hardness of languages in NP, where hardness is with respect to BPP algorithms. We introduce the notion of monotone error...
This paper proposes a novel tree decomposition based side-chain assignment algorithm, which can obtain the globally optimal solution of the side-chain packing problem very efficien...
In this paper we present a method for reformulating the Recommender Systems problem in an Information Retrieval one. In our tests we have a dataset of users who give ratings for s...
