On Bipartite Matching under the RMS Distance
Given two sets A and B of n points each in R2 , we study the problem of computing a matching between A and B that minimizes the root mean square (rms) distance of matched pairs. W...

Computing Strongest Necessary and Weakest Sufficient Conditions of First-Order Formulas
A technique is proposed for computing the weakest sufficient (wsc) and strongest necessary (snc) conditions for formulas in an expressive fragment of first-order logic using quant...
