Let K be a polytope in Rn defined by m linear inequalities. We give a new Markov Chain algorithm to draw a nearly uniform sample from K. The underlying Markov Chain is the first t...
A function on n variables is called a k-junta if it depends on at most k of its variables. In this article, we show that it is possible to test whether a function is a k-junta or ...
In this paper, we design recommender systems for weblogs based on the link structure among them. We propose algorithms based on refined random walks and spectral methods. First, w...
Data Mining with Bayesian Network learning has two important characteristics: under broad conditions learned edges between variables correspond to causal influences, and second, f...

We consider the problem of broadcasting multiple variable-bit-rate (VBR) video streams from a base station to many mobile devices over a wireless network, so that: (i) perceived q...
