We address the classical knapsack problem and a variant in which an upper bound is imposed on the number of items that can be selected. We show that appropriate combinations of ro...
A star forest of a graph G is a spanning subgraph of G in which each component is a star. The minimum number of edges required to guarantee that an arbitrary graph, or a bipartite...

Abstract--We adapt methods originally developed in information and coding theory to solve some testing problems. The efficiency of two-stage pool testing of items is characterized ...
Abstract— We present a novel algorithm to perform continuous collision detection(CCD) between non-rigid, deformable models using local advancement. Given the initial and final c...
We present a new online learning algorithm in the selective sampling framework, where labels must be actively queried before they are revealed. We prove bounds on the regret of ou...
