We present a new type of monotone submodular functions: multi-peak submodular functions. Roughly speaking, given a family of sets F, we construct a monotone submodular function f ...
The need of processing graph reachability queries stems from many applications that manage complex data as graphs. The applications include transportation network, Internet traffic...
We revisit one of the most fundamental classes of data structure problems in computational geometry: range searching. Back in SoCG’92, Matouˇsek gave a partition tree method fo...
With the growing importance of semi-structure data in information exchange, much research has been done to provide an effective mechanism to match a twig query in an XML database....
Let S be a set of n points moving on the real line. The kinetic sorting problem is to maintain a data structure on the set S that makes it possible to quickly generate a sorted li...
