Estimating characteristics of large graphs via sampling is a vital part of the study of complex networks. Current sampling methods such as (independent) random vertex and random w...
Abstract--In cognitive radio (CR) networks with multipleinput multiple-output (MIMO) links, secondary users (SUs) can exploit "spectrum holes" in the space domain to acce...
Efficiency enhancement techniques--such as parallelization and hybridization--are among the most important ingredients of practical applications of genetic and evolutionary algori...
A global sensitivity analysis with regional properties is introduced. This method is demonstrated on two synthetic and one hydraulic example. It can be shown that an uncertainty a...
