Minutes for UA MOPS meeting, May 16, 2006

In attendance:
   Kobus Barnard, Alon Efrat, Bongki Moon, Praveen Rao

Main points:

   o First summer schedule meeting (Tuesdays at 10:00). 

   o Bongki agreed to give Kobus a rest as the scribe. Starting next week, the
     minutes will be prepared by him. 

   o We discussed preparation of SPIE poster

   o Praveen Rao and Bongki Moon have the action item of looking into the
     details of the PanSTARRS MOPS system to ensure optimal co-development. We
     have tentatively scheduled the meeting on June 6 for them to present
     detailed analysis and recommendations. This may be adjusted based on the
     possible interactions with Francesco Pierfederici and other happenings. 

   o The bulk of the meeting was spent on discussing some ideas that Alon had
     regarding matching. In particular, Alon presented a formulation of a robust
     matching. Alon suggested that we call an edge in a bipartite matching
     epsilon-robust if it survives the addition of epsilon "jitter" (error) in
     the weights. 

   o Alon further suggested that we could be able to compute the epsilon for
     each edge in the optimal match in somewhat reasonable time. We will further
     look into the prospects of a relatively efficient algorithm for this. 

   o (Kobus) We need to consider what is the relation between this and the
     probabilistic formulation.
