Monitoring the variables of real world dynamic systems is a difficult task due to their inherent complexity and uncertainty. Particle Filters (PF) perform that task, yielding prob...
We present a general framework for approximating several NP-hard problems that have two underlying properties in common. First, the problems we consider can be formulated as intege...
We investigate a variant of the Fixed Charge Shortest Paths problem which enumerates the sequence of optimal solutions that arise as the focus shifts from the fixed cost parameter...
Suppose that we are given a set of n elements d of which are “defective”. A group test can check for any subset, called a pool, whether it contains a defective. It is well know...
It is well known that any non-binary discrete constraint satisfaction problem (CSP) can be translated into an equivalent binary CSP. Two translations are known: the dual graph tra...
