We present a general framework for approximating several NP-hard problems that have two underlying properties in common. First, the problems we consider can be formulated as intege...
The problem of data semantics is establishing and maintaining the correspondence between a data source and its intended subject matter. We review the long history of the problem in...
The metric 2-clustering problem is de ned as follows: given a metric (X;d), partition X into two sets S1 and S2 in order to minimize the value of X i X fu;vg Si d(u;v) In this pap...
We propose two trapdoors for the Closest-Vector-Problem in lattices (CVP) related to the lattice tensor product. Using these trapdoors we set up a lattice-based cryptosystem which ...
Abstract. Given two rooted, labeled trees P and T the tree path subsequence problem is to determine which paths in P are subsequences of which paths in T. Here a path begins at the...
