Proceedings of the 50th Annual ACM SIGACT Symposium on Theory of Computing, 2018 We consider very natural "fence enclosure" problems studied by Capoyleas, Rote, and Woeginger and Arkin, Khuller, and Mitchell in the early 90s. Given a set $S$ of $n$ points in the plane, we aim at finding a set of closed curves such that (1) each point is enclosed by a curve and (2) the total length of the curves is minimized.

FAST—Fast Algorithm for the Scenario Technique
Operations Research, 2014 The scenario approach is a recently introduced method to obtain feasible solutions to chance-constrained optimization problems based on random sampling. It has been noted that the sample complexity of the scenario approach rapidly increases with the number of optimization variables and this may pose a hurdle to its applicability to medium- and large ...

The effects of Ramadan fasting and physical activity on body composition and hematological biochemical parameters [PDF]
Journal of Fasting and Health, 2014 Introduction: Hunger and reduction in regular energy intake can lead to a number of problems based on their intensity. For instance, low energy level can cause blood cell production to decline or it may pose a higher risk of anemia.

Bivariate genetic modelling of the response to an oral glucose tolerance challenge: A gene x environment interaction approach [PDF]
, 2009 AIMS/HYPOTHESIS: Twin and family studies have shown the importance of genetic factors influencing fasting and 2 h glucose and insulin levels. However, the genetics of the physiological response to a glucose load has not been thoroughly investigated ...

Fast B4B: Fast BFT for Blockchains
CoRR, 2021 Low latency is one of the desired properties for partially synchronous Byzantine consensus protocols. Previous protocols have achieved consensus with just two communication steps either by reducing the bound on the number of faults the protocol can tolerate ($f \leq \frac{n-1}{5}$) or use of trusted hardware like Trusted Execution Environment or TEEs ...
