We develop algorithms for computing the smallest enclosing ball of a set of n balls in d-dimensional space. Unlike previous methods, we explicitly address small cases (n ≤ d + 1...
Suppose we are given a matrix that is formed by adding an unknown sparse matrix to an unknown low-rank matrix. Our goal is to decompose the given matrix into its sparse and low-ran...

We wish to increase the power of an arbitrary algorithm designed for non-degenerate input, by allowing it to execute on all inputs. We concentrate on in nitesimal symbolic perturba...
Abstract. Motivated by the analogies to statistical physics, the deterministic annealing (DA) method has successfully been demonstrated in a variety of application. In this paper, ...
Suppose we are given a sequence of n points in the Euclidean plane, and our objective is to construct, on-line, a connected graph that connects all of them, trying to minimize the...
