All Near Neighbor GraphWithout Searching

Edgar Chávez, Verónica Ludueña, Nora Reyes, Fernando Kasián • Journal of Computer Science and Technology (2018)

Given a collection of n objects equipped with a distance function d(·, ·), the Nearest Neighbor Graph (NNG) consists in finding the nearest neighbor of each object in the collection. Without an index the total cost of NNG is quadratic. Usin...

Determinantal Sieving

Eduard Eiben, Tomohiro Koana, Magnus Wahlström • TheoretiCS (2025)

We introduce determinantal sieving, a new, remarkably powerful tool in the toolbox of algebraic FPT algorithms. Given a polynomial $P(X)$ on a set of variables $X=\{x_1,\ldots,x_n\}$ and a linear matroid $M=(X,\mathcal{I})$ of rank $k$, bot...

A game-theoretic sequential three-way decision using probabilistic rough sets and multiple levels of granularity

T. V. Soumya, M. K. Sabu • Discover Computing (2025)

Abstract The sequential three-way decision accepts additional information at each level and makes more accurate definite decisions with less uncertainty. This process can also be extended to two-way classification with the finer-grained inf...
