Approximate text search is a basic technique to handle recognized text that contains recognition errors. This paper proposes an approximate string search for recognized text using...
We present an approximation algorithm for computing the diameter of a point-set in d-dimensions. The new algorithm is sensitive to the "hardness" of computing the diamet...
We give a simple algorithm for the MINIMUM DIRECTED MULTICUT problem, and show that it gives an Ç´ÔÒµapproximation. This improves on the previous approximation guarantee of Ã...
This paper presents a list-decoding algorithm for classical irreducible binary Goppa codes. The algorithm corrects, in polynomial time, approximately n − p n(n − 2t − 2) err...
This paper presents improved approximation algorithms for the problem of multiprocessor scheduling under uncertainty (SUU), in which the execution of each job may fail probabilist...
