Abstract: Identifying positive influence dominating set (PIDS) with the smallest cardinality can produce positive effect with the minimal cost on a social network. The purpose of this article is to ...

At this point, it's practically common knowledge that the ideal daily step count is 10,000 steps, right? Well, per science, we've got it all wrong! Want more walking? Get the brand-new exclusive WH+ 4 ...

Graph cover problems form a critical area within discrete optimisation and theoretical computer science, addressing the challenge of selecting subsets of vertices (or edges) that satisfy predetermined ...

ABSTRACT: First, the necessary mathematical tools are recalled regarding the concepts of stochastic control processes, including stochastic optimal control and one of its fundamental principles, the ...

We propose a discrete approximation scheme to a class of Linear Quadratic Continuous Time Problems. It is shown, under positiveness of the matrix in the integral cost, that optimal solutions of the ...

We study the problem of estimating the size of a maximum matching in sublinear time. The problem has been studied extensively in the literature and various algorithms and lower bounds are known for it ...

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. For computer scientists, solving problems is a bit like mountaineering. First they must choose a problem to solve—akin to identifying a ...

Abstract: In applied and numerical algebraic geometry, many problems are reduced to computing an approximation to a real algebraic curve. In order to elevate the results of such a computation to the ...
