We present the Iterated-Tverberg algorithm, the first deterministic algorithm for computing an approximate centerpoint of a set S ∈ Rd with running time sub-exponential in d. T...
This paper describes an interactive simulation of the Electronical Numerical Integrator and Computer (ENIAC). With the simulator, the user can wire up complex configurations of th...
The precise specification of reward functions for Markov decision processes (MDPs) is often extremely difficult, motivating research into both reward elicitation and the robust so...
We present a new local approximation algorithm for computing MAP and logpartition function for arbitrary exponential family distribution represented by a finite-valued pair-wise ...
We study simple greedy approximation algorithms for general class of integer packing problems. We provide a novel analysis based on the duality theory of linear programming. This e...
