Abstract. In this work, we address the problem of transient and steadystate analysis of a stochastic Petri net which includes non Markovian distributions with a finite support but ...
This paper addresses the problem of configuring wireless sensor networks (WSNs). Specifically, we seek answers to the following questions: how many sensors should be deployed, wha...
In this paper we tackle the problem of matching two colored point sets in R3 under the bottleneck distance. First we present an exact matching algorithm that requires the computat...
A predicate P : {−1, 1}k → {0, 1} can be associated with a constraint satisfaction problem Max CSP(P). P is called “approximation resistant” if Max CSP(P) cannot be approxi...
This contribution develops a theoretical framework that takes into account the effect of approximate optimization on learning algorithms. The analysis shows distinct tradeoffs for...
