Let G = ((A,B),E) be an instance of the stable marriage problem where every vertex ranks its neighbors in a strict order of preference. A matching M in G is popular if M does not lose a head-to-head election against any matching. Popular…
We investigate the impact of modifying the constraining relations of a Constraint Satisfaction Problem (CSP) instance, with a fixed template, on the set of solutions of the instance. More precisely we investigate sensitive instances: an…
The Restricted Isometry Property (RIP) is a fundamental property of a matrix enabling sparse recovery. Informally, an m x n matrix satisfies RIP of order k in the l_p norm if ||Ax||_p \approx ||x||_p for any vector x that is k-sparse, i.e.,…
Determining whether two STRIPS planning instances are isomorphic is the simplest form of comparison between planning instances. It is also a particular case of the problem concerned with finding an isomorphism between a planning instance…
Stability selection is a widely adopted resampling-based framework for high-dimensional variable selection. This paper seeks to broaden the use of an established stability estimator to evaluate the overall stability of the stability…
In this work, we show that for all statistical estimation problems, a natural MMSE instability (discontinuity) condition implies the failure of stable algorithms, serving as a version of OGP for estimation tasks. Using this criterion, we…
We study the binary perceptron, a random constraint satisfaction problem that asks to find a Boolean vector in the intersection of independently chosen random halfspaces. A striking feature of this model is that at every positive constraint…
Asking which sets are fixed-parameter tractable for a given parameterization constitutes much of the current research in parameterized complexity theory. This approach faces some of the core difficulties in complexity theory. By focussing…
Following up a recent work by Ashlagi, Kanoria and Leshno, we study a stable matching problem with unequal numbers of men and women, and independent uniform preferences. The asymptotic formulas for the expected number of stable matchings,…
A matrix is said to possess the Restricted Isometry Property (RIP) if it acts as an approximate isometry when restricted to sparse vectors. Previous work has shown it to be NP-hard to determine whether a matrix possess this property, but…
Let $P$ be a set of points in $\mathbb{R}^d$, where each point $p\in P$ has an associated transmission range $\rho(p)$. The range assignment $\rho$ induces a directed communication graph $\mathcal{G}_{\rho}(P)$ on $P$, which contains an…
The literature on centralized matching markets often assumes that a true preference of each player is known to herself and fixed, but empirical evidence casts doubt on its plausibility. To circumvent the problem, we consider evolutionary…
We study the Stable Fixtures problem, a many-to-many generalisation of the classical non-bipartite Stable Roommates matching problem. Building on the foundational work of Tan on stable partitions, we extend his results to this significantly…
In this paper, we consider a matroid generalization of the stable matching problem. In particular, we consider the setting where preferences may contain ties. For this generalization, we propose a polynomial-time algorithm for the problem…
The Student-Project Allocation problem with lecturer preferences over Students (SPA-S) involves assigning students to projects based on student preferences over projects, lecturer preferences over students, and the maximum number of…
State-of-the-art object pose estimation handles multiple instances in a test image by using multi-model formulations: detection as a first stage and then separately trained networks per object for 2D-3D geometric correspondence prediction…
We study the problem of checking whether an existential sentence (that is, a first-order sentence in prefix form built using existential quantifiers and all Boolean connectives) is true in a finite partially ordered set (in short, a poset).…
Constraint satisfaction problem (CSP) is a well-studied combinatorial search problem, in which we are asked to find an assignment of values to given variables so as to satisfy all of given constraints. We study a reconfiguration variant of…
The Restricted Isometry Property (RIP) is a fundamental property of a matrix which enables sparse recovery. Informally, an $m \times n$ matrix satisfies RIP of order $k$ for the $\ell_p$ norm, if $\|Ax\|_p \approx \|x\|_p$ for every vector…
We study a generalization of the classical stable matching problem that allows for cardinal preferences (as opposed to ordinal) and fractional matchings (as opposed to integral). After observing that, in this cardinal setting, stable…
