We consider the problem of testing whether the maximum additive integrality gap of a family of integer programs in standard form is bounded by a given constant. This can be viewed as a generalization of the integer rounding property, which can be tested in ...
In this paper we deal with the critical node problem (CNP), i.e., the problem of searching for a given number K of nodes in a graph G, whose removal minimizes the (weighted or unweighted) number of connections between pairs of nodes in the residual graph. ...
Group-based sparsity models are proven instrumental in linear regression problems for recovering signals from much fewer measurements than standard compressive sensing. A promise of these models is to lead to “interpretable” signals for which we identify i ...
In this paper, we settle the open complexity status of interval constrained coloring with a fixed number of colors. We prove that the problem is already NP-complete if the number of different colors is 3. Previously, it has only been known that it is NP-co ...
The trend towards personalized medicine and the long-standing wish to reduce drug consumption and unwanted side effects have been the driving force behind research on drug delivery vehicles that control localization, timing and dose of released cargo. Cont ...
The maximization of a positive (semi) definite complex quadratic form over a finite alphabet is NP-hard and achieved through exhaustive search when the form has full rank. However, if the form is rank-deficient, the optimal solution can be computed with on ...
In this tutorial paper, we consider the basic image reconstruction problem which stems from discrete tomography. We derive a graph theoretical model and we explore some variations and extensions of this model. This allows us to establish connections with s ...
We consider the problem of testing whether the maximum integrality gap of a family of integer programs in standard form is bounded by a given constant. This can be viewed as a generalization of the integer rounding property, which can be tested in polynomi ...
We study a multiprocessor extension of the preemptive open shop scheduling problem, where the set of processors is partitioned into processor groups. We show that the makespan minimization problem is polynomially solvable for two multiprocessor groups even ...
A general (rectangular) partition is a partition of a rectangle into an arbitrary number of non-overlapping subrectangles. This paper examines vertex 4-colorings of general partitions where every subrectangle is required to have all four colors appear on i ...
