Guard placement for efficient point-in-polygon proofs
We consider the problem of placing a small number of angle guards inside a simple polygon P so as to provide efficient proofs that any given point is inside P. Each angle guard vi...

When Policies Can Be Trusted: Analyzing a Criteria to Identify Optimal Policies in MDPs with Unknown Model Parameters
Computing a good policy in stochastic uncertain environments with unknown dynamics and reward model parameters is a challenging task. In a number of domains, ranging from space ro...

Steiner points in tree metrics don't (really) help
Consider an edge-weighted tree T = (V, E, w : E R+ ), in which a subset R of the nodes (called the required nodes) are colored red and the remaining nodes in S = V \R are colored ...

Pebbling and Branching Programs Solving the Tree Evaluation Problem
We study restricted computation models related to the tree evaluation problem. The TEP was introduced in earlier work as a simple candidate for the (very) long term goal of separa...

On the Optimality of the ARQ-DDF Protocol
The performance of the automatic repeat request-dynamic decode and forward (ARQ-DDF) cooperation protocol is analyzed in two distinct scenarios. The first scenario is the multiple...
