A unified framework is applied to solving various sequence comparison problems for run-length encoded strings. All of these algorithms take O(min{mn , m n}) time and O(max{m, n}) s...
A foundational issue underlying many overlay network applications ranging from routing to peer-to-peer file sharing is that of connectivity management, i.e., folding new arrivals ...
We consider the problem of determining the placement of a star R on a set P of n points in the plane such that a given objective function is maximized. A star R is a set of m rays...
This paper presents an approach for substantially reducing the time needed to calculate the shortest paths between all concepts in a wordnet. The algorithm exploits the unique &qu...
We present V-measure, an external entropybased cluster evaluation measure. Vmeasure provides an elegant solution to many problems that affect previously defined cluster evaluatio...
