An efficient approximation algorithm for the survivable network design problem
The survivable network design problem (SNDP) is to construct a minimum-cost subgraph satisfying certain given edge-connectivity requirements. The first polynomial-time approximati...

On-Line Difference Maximization
In this paper we examine problems motivated by on-line financial problems and stochastic games. In particular, we consider a sequence of entirely arbitrary distinct values arrivin...

Fusion in Multibiometric Identification Systems: What about the Missing Data?
Many large-scale biometric systems operate in the identification mode and include multimodal information. While biometric fusion is a well-studied problem, most of the fusion schem...

Counting Inversions, Offline Orthogonal Range Counting, and Related Problems
We give an O(n lg n)-time algorithm for counting the number of inversions in a permutation on n elements. This improves a long-standing previous bound of O(n lg n/ lg lg n) that ...
