We consider the parallels between the preference elicitation problem in combinatorial auctions and the problem of learning an unknown function from learning theory. We show that l...
Cai and Selman [CS99] defined a modification of Levin’s notion of average polynomial time and proved, for every P-bi-immune language L and every polynomial-time computable dis...
A geometric graph is a labeled graph whose vertices are points in the 2D plane with an isomorphism invariant under geometric transformations such as translation, rotation, and scal...
In this paper, we investigate the problem of increasing the threshold parameter of the Shamir (t, n)-threshold scheme without interacting with the dealer. Our construction will re...
We study the problem of minimizing a sum of p-norms where p is a fixed real number in the interval [1, ]. Several practical algorithms have been proposed to solve this problem. How...
