Random sampling of lattice paths with constraints, via transportation
We investigate Monte Carlo Markov Chain (MCMC) procedures for the random sampling of some one-dimensional lattice paths with constraints, for various constraints. We will see that...

On unbiased sampling for unstructured peer-to-peer networks
This paper addresses the difficult problem of selecting representative samples of peer properties (e.g., degree, link bandwidth, number of files shared) in unstructured peer-to-p...

The Convergence-Guaranteed Random Walk and Its Applications in Peer-to-Peer Networks
Network structure construction and global state maintenance are expensive in large-scale, dynamic peer-to-peer (p2p) networks. With inherent topology independence and low state mai...

Faster Generation of Random Spanning Trees
In this paper, we set forth a new algorithm for generating approximately uniformly random spanning trees in undirected graphs. We show how to sample from a distribution that is wi...

Using Random Subspace to Combine Multiple Features for Face Recognition
LDA is a popular subspace based face recognition approach. However, it often suffers from the small sample size problem. When dealing with the high dimensional face data, the LDA ...
