Abstract. We develop a generic framework for deriving linear-size problem kernels for NP-hard problems on planar graphs. We demonstrate the usefulness of our framework in several c...
: We give a tight analysis of an old and popular sweep-line heuristic for constructing a spanning tree of a set of n points in the plane. The algorithm sweeps a vertical line acros...
This paper investigates two fundamental characteristics of a wireless multihop network: its minimum node degree and its k?connectivity. Both topology attributes depend on the spat...
In this paper, we address the problem of classifying image sets, each of which contains images belonging to the same class but covering large variations in, for instance, viewpoin...
We present a simple algorithm for the maximum spanning star forest problem. We take advantage of the fact that the problem is a special case of complementary set cover and we adapt...
