We show that for several classes of idempotent semirings the least fixed-point of a polynomial system of equations X = f(X) is equal to the least fixed-point of a linear system obt...

We consider equation systems of the form X1 = f1(X1, . . . , Xn), . . . , Xn = fn(X1, . . . , Xn) where f1, . . . , fn are polynomials with positive real coefficients. In vector fo...

We consider the decision problem for quantifier-free formulas whose atoms are linear inequalities interpreted over the reals or rationals. This problem may be decided using satisf...
Skyline queries have gained considerable attention for multicriteria analysis of large-scale datasets. However, the skyline queries are known to return too many results for highdi...
Important anatomical features on the cortical surface are usually represented by landmark curves, called sulcal/gyral curves. Manual labeling of these landmark curves is time-cons...
