Graph cut algorithms (i.e., min s-t cuts) [3][10][15] are useful in many computer vision applications. In this paper we develop a formulation that allows the addition of side cons...
In this paper, we consider the mechanism design version of the fractional variant of the scheduling problem on unrelated machines. We give a lower bound of 2 − 1/n for any fracti...

Defeasible Logic is a promising representation for legal knowledge that appears to overcome many of the deficiencies of previous approaches to representing legal knowledge. Unfor...
Source and destination location privacy is a challenging and important problem in sensor networks. Nevertheless, privacy preserving communication in sensor networks is still a vir...
