Depth-first branch-and-bound (DFBnB) is a complete algorithm that is typically used to find optimal solutions of difficult combinatorial optimization problems. It can also be adap...
It has long been noted that many data mining algorithms can be built on top of join algorithms. This has lead to a wealth of recent work on efficiently supporting such joins with ...

The Chow parameters of a Boolean function f : {−1, 1}n → {−1, 1} are its n + 1 degree-0 and degree-1 Fourier coefficients. It has been known since 1961 [Cho61, Tan61] that ...

In this paper we describe a general grouping technique to devise faster and simpler approximation schemes for several scheduling problems. We illustrate the technique on two diff...

We propose a feature selection method that constructs each new feature by analysis of tight error clusters. This is a greedy, time-efficient forward selection algorithm that itera...
