We study field-monitoring applications in which sensors are deployed in large numbers and the sensing process is expensive. In such applications, nodes should use the minimum poss...
Optimal Brain Damage (OBD) is a method for reducing the number of weights in a neural network. OBD estimates the increase in cost function if weights are pruned and is a valid app...

This paper addresses the following relay sensor placement problem: given the set of duty sensors in the plane and the upper bound of the transmission range, compute the minimum nu...

The disc covering problem asks to cover a set of points on the plane with a minimum number of fix-sized discs. We develop an O(n(log n)2 (log log n)2 ) deterministic time 2.8334-a...
We introduce a new approach to computing an approximately maximum s-t flow in a capacitated, undirected graph. This flow is computed by solving a sequence of electrical flow probl...
