We analyze the addition of a simple local improvement step to various known randomized approximation algorithms. Let ' 0:87856 denote the best approximation ratio currently k...
We revise the Volume Algorithm (VA) for linear programming and relate it to bundle methods. When first introduced, VA was presented as a subgradient-like method for solving the ori...

Abstract: We introduce a unified framework to describe, relate, compare and classify functional language implementations. The compilation process is expressed as a succession of p...
We present a scalable volume rendering technique that exploits lossy compression and low-cost commodity hardware to permit highly interactive exploration of time-varying scalar vol...
This paper deals with content-based image retrieval. When the user is looking for large categories, statistical classification techniques are efficient as soon as the training se...
