Convex Relaxations of Latent Variable Training
We investigate a new, convex relaxation of an expectation-maximization (EM) variant that approximates a standard objective while eliminating local minima. First, a cautionary resu...

Training sequential on-line boosting classifier for visual tracking
On-line boosting allows to adapt a trained classifier to changing environmental conditions or to use sequentially available training data. Yet, two important problems in the on-li...

Railway Delay Management: Exploring Its Algorithmic Complexity
We consider delay management in railway systems. Given delayed trains, we want to find a waiting policy for the connecting trains minimizing the weighted total passenger delay. If...

A Probabilistic Algorithm for k-SAT and Constraint Satisfaction Problems
We present a simple probabilistic algorithm for solving kSAT, and more generally, for solving constraint satisfaction problems (CSP). The algorithm follows a simple localsearch pa...

On the complexity of schedule control problems for knockout tournaments
Knockout tournaments constitute a common format of sporting events, and also model a specific type of election scheme (namely, sequential pairwise elimination election). In such ...
