Szafron, Duane, Ozsu, M. Tamer, Li, John
Technical report TR95-25. Declarative query languages are an important feature of database management systems and have played an important role in their success. As database management technology enters the multimedia information system area, the availability of special-purpose query languages...

Technical report TR98-06. In this paper, we examine the bandwidth problem in circular-arc graphs, chordal graphs with a bounded number of leaves in the clique tree, and k-polygon graphs (fixed k). All of these graph classes admit efficient approximation algorithms which are based on exact or...

Bhatnagar, Shalabh, Sutton, Richard, Ghavamzadeh, Mohammad, Lee, Mark
Technical report TR09-10. We present four new reinforcement learning algorithms based on actor-critic, function approximation, and natural gradient ideas, and we provide their convergence proofs. Actor-critic reinforcement learning methods are online approximations to policy iteration in which...

Technical report TR93-03. There are several ways to search decision trees (one and two-person game trees) in parallel, from simple splitting at the root and Principal Variation Splitting, to Baudet's use of aspiration windows. These static schemes are simple and effective, but dynamic methods...

Technical report TR09-12. Optimal utility-based congestion control is an optimization approach to congestion control problems where the objective is to maximize the aggregate source utility over their transmission rates. It has been used to analyze Internet congestion control schemes. In this...

Graph Clustering: Complexity, Sequential and Parallel Algorithms
1995
Technical report TR95-01. In this thesis we study graph clustering on two well known families of graphs that arise in many applications, namely bipartite and chordal graphs. We study two specific types of clustering problems. On the one hand we seek a partition of the vertex set of a graph into...

Technical report TR01-06. We are so used to the ubiquitous World-Wide Web (WWW) that we take it for granted. There is no need to emphasize how dynamic, large, rich, and unstructured, yet important the Web is. From researchers and engineers to children and retired elderly, everyone uses the WWW...
