We present a near-optimal reduction from approximately counting the cardinality of a discrete set to approximately sampling elements of the set. An important application of our wo...
Consider a two-party quantum communication protocol for computing some function f : {0, 1}n × {0, 1}n → Z. We show that the first message of P can be compressed to O(k) classi...
Smart antennas have gained significant importance in multihop wireless networks in recent years, because of their sophisticated signal processing capabilities that hold the potent...

Many tasks in computer vision involve assigning a label (such as disparity) to every pixel. These tasks can be formulated as energy minimization problems. In this paper, we conside...
Program transformation systems provide one means of formally deriving a program from its speci cation. The main advantage of this development method is that the executable program...
