We give a randomized protocol for the classic cake cutting problem that guarantees approximate proportional fairness, and with high probability uses a linear number of cuts.
Variational Bayesian (VB) methods are typically only applied to models in the conjugate-exponential family using the variational Bayesian expectation maximisation (VB EM) algorith...

We give a practical and provably good Monte Carlo algorithm for approximating center points. Let P be a set of n points in IRd . A point c ∈ IRd is a β-center point of P if eve...

We have considered a problem of continuous piecewise linear approximation of the digital curves with a minimum number of the line segments. Fast suboptimal algorithm for constrain...
Let P be a convex polytope in Rd , d = 3 or 2, with n vertices. We present linear time algorithms for approximating P by simpler polytopes. For instance, one such algorithm select...
