This thesis is concerned with analyzing the computational complexity of NP-hard problems related to data science. For most of the problems considered in this thesis, the computational complexity has not been intensively studied before. We focus on the complexity of computing exact problem solutions and conduct a detailed analysis identifying tractable special cases. To this end, we adopt a parameterized viewpoint in which we spot several parameters which describe properties of a specific problem instance that allow to solve the instance efficiently. We develop specialized algorithms whose running times are polynomial if the corresponding parameter value is constant. We also investigate in wh...
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 12th Annual Conference on Theory and Applications of Models of Computation, TAMC 2014, held in Singapore, in May 2015. The 35 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 78 submissions. The papers treat all topics relating to the theory and applications of models computation, for example recursion theory and mathematical logic; computational complexity and Boolean functions; graphy theory; quantum computing; parallelism and statistics; learning, automata and probabilistic models; parameterised complexity.
This book constitutes the proceedings of the 11th International Computer Science Symposium in Russia, CSR 2016, held in St. Petersburg, Russia, in June 2016. The 28 full papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 71 submissions. In addition the book contains 4 invited lectures. The scope of the proposed topics is quite broad and covers a wide range of areas such as: include, but are not limited to: algorithms and data structures; combinatorial optimization; constraint solving; computational complexity; cryptography; combinatorics in computer science; formal languages and automata; computational models and concepts; algorithms for concurrent and distributed systems, networks; proof theory and applications of logic to computer science; model checking; automated reasoning; and deductive methods.
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-workshop proceedings of the 24th International Workshop on Combinatorial Algorithms, IWOCA 2013, held in Rouen, France, in July 2013. The 33 revised full papers presented together with 10 short papers and 5 invited talks were carefully reviewed and selected from a total of 91 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on algorithms on graphs; algorithms on strings; discrete geometry and satisfiability.
In this thesis we describe dualities in directed as well as undirected graphs based on tools such as width-parameters, obstructions and substructures. We mainly focus on directed graphs and their structure. In the context of a long open conjecture that bounds the monotonicity costs of a version of the directed cops and robber game, we introduce new width-measures based on directed separations that are closely related to DAG-width. We identify a tangle-like obstruction for which we prove a duality theorem. Johnson, Reed, Robertson, Seymour and Thomas introduced the width measure directed treewidth as a generalisation of treewidth for directed graphs. We introduce a new width measure, the cycl...

In dieser Arbeit entwickeln wir schnellere exakte Algorithmen (schneller bezüglich der Worst-Case-Laufzeit) für Spezialfälle von Graphproblemen. Diese Algorithmen beruhen größtenteils auf dynamischem Programmieren und auf 2-SAT-Programmierung. Dynamisches Programmieren beschreibt den Vorgang, ein Problem rekursiv in Unterprobleme zu zerteilen, sodass diese Unterprobleme gemeinsame Unterunterprobleme haben. Wenn diese Unterprobleme optimal gelöst wurden, dann kombiniert das dynamische Programm diese Lösungen zu einer optimalen Lösung des Ursprungsproblems. 2-SAT-Programmierung bezeichnet den Prozess, ein Problem durch eine Menge von 2-SAT-Formeln (aussagenlogische Formeln in konjunkti...
