Scalability and extended lifetime are two critical design goals of any large scale wireless sensor network. A two-tiered network model has been proposed recently for this purpose....
We consider the problem of maximizing welfare when allocating m items to n players with subadditive utility functions. Our main result is a way of rounding any fractional solution...
Recently, there has been a surge of interest in gapped q-gram filters for approximate string matching. Important design parameters for filters are for example the value of q, the f...
Two new techniques are proposed to improve stereo matching performance in this work. First, to address the disparity discontinuity problem in occluded regions, we present a dispar...
We consider the problem of gathering data from a wireless multi-hop network of energy-constrained sensor nodes to a common base station. Specifically, we aim to balance the total...
