Designing Effective Policies for Minimal Agents
A policy for a minimal reactive agent is a set of condition-action rules used to determine its response to perceived environmental stimuli. When the policy pre-disposes the agent t...

Tightening Nonsimple Paths and Cycles on Surfaces
We describe algorithms to compute the shortest path homotopic to a given path, or the shortest cycle freely homotopic to a given cycle, on an orientable combinatorial surface. Unli...

Attention-based video streaming
This paper presents a complete framework for attention-based video streaming for low bandwidth networks. First, motivated by the fovea-periphery distinction of biological vision s...

Truthful and Near-Optimal Mechanism Design via Linear Programming
We give a general technique to obtain approximation mechanisms that are truthful in expectation. We show that for packing domains, any α-approximation algorithm that also bounds ...
