We present a novel message passing algorithm for approximating the MAP problem in graphical models. The algorithm is similar in structure to max-product but unlike max-product it ...
Internet coordinate schemes have been proposed as a method for estimating minimum round trip time between hosts without direct measurement. In such a scheme, each host is assigned...
An analytical model is developed to solve the power-rate assignment problem for multi-rate CDMA systems and calculate the probability density function (PDF) for the downlink traffi...
The job rotation problem (JRP) is the following: Given an n × n matrix A over R ∪ {−∞} and k ≤ n, find a k × k principal submatrix of A whose optimal assignment problem...
Previous work on the partial Latin square extension (PLSE) problem resulted in a 2-approximation algorithm based on the LP relaxation of a three-dimensional assignment IP formulat...
