We study the maximum edge-disjoint paths problem in undirected planar graphs: given a graph G and node pairs (demands) s1t1, s2t2, . . ., sktk, the goal is to maximize the number ...

We consider the problem of discovering a smooth unknown surface S bounding an object O in R3 . The discovery process consists of moving a point probing device in the free space ar...

Planning in partially observable environments remains a challenging problem, despite significant recent advances in offline approximation techniques. A few online methods have a...
This paper studies an extension of the k-median problem where we are given a metric space (V, d) and not just one but m client sets {Si V }m i=1, and the goal is to open k facili...

We present a technique for computing approximately optimal solutions to stochastic resource allocation problems modeled as Markov decision processes (MDPs). We exploit two key pro...
