Abstract. We consider the problem of learning a user's ordinal preferences on a multiattribute domain, assuming that her preferences are lexicographic. We introduce a general ...
In [3], the authors introduced the Generalised Character Compatibility Problem as a generalisation of the Perfect Phylogeny Problem for a set of species. This generalised problem t...
: We study a variant of the path cover problem, namely, the k-fixed-endpoint path cover problem, or kPC for short. Given a graph G and a subset T of k vertices of V (G), a k-fixe...
Based on the framework of parameterized complexity theory, we derive tight lower bounds on the computational complexity for a number of well-known NP-hard problems. We start by pr...

An instance of the maximum constraint satisfaction problem (Max CSP) is a nite collection of constraints on a set of variables, and the goal is to assign values to the variables ...
