Fast incremental proximity search in large graphs
In this paper we investigate two aspects of ranking problems on large graphs. First, we augment the deterministic pruning algorithm in Sarkar and Moore (2007) with sampling techni...

Heuristics for the multi-vehicle covering tour problem
The multi-vehicle covering tour problem is de"ned on a graph G"(<6=, E), where = is a set of vertices that must collectively be covered by up to m vehicles. The probl...

Derandomizing the AW matrix-valued Chernoff bound using pessimistic estimators and applications
Ahlswede and Winter [AW02] introduced a Chernoff bound for matrix-valued random variables, which is a non-trivial generalization of the usual Chernoff bound for real-valued random...

A deterministic density algorithm for pairwise interaction coverage
Pairwise coverage of factors affecting software has been proposed to screen for potential errors. Techniques to generate test suites for pairwise coverage are evaluated according ...

Hardness Amplification via Space-Efficient Direct Products
We prove a version of the derandomized Direct Product lemma for deterministic space-bounded algorithms. Suppose a Boolean function g : {0, 1}n {0, 1} cannot be computed on more th...
