— Scheduling in an ad hoc wireless network suffers from the non-convexity of the cost function, caused by the interference between communication links. In previous optimization t...
—FRASA, Feedback Retransmission Approximation for Slotted ALOHA, is proposed to study the stability region of finiteuser slotted ALOHA under collision channel. With FRASA, the s...
Sets of features in Markov decision processes can play a critical role ximately representing value and in abstracting the state space. Selection of features is crucial to the succe...
We address the problem of designing data structures that allow efficient search for approximate nearest neighbors. More specifically, given a database consisting of a set of vecto...
We present a unified framework for designing polynomial time approximation schemes (PTASs) for “dense” instances of many NP-hard optimization problems, including maximum cut,...
