Abstract. In the 2nd Annual FOCS (1961), Chao-Kong Chow proved that every Boolean threshold function is uniquely determined by its degree-0 and degree-1 Fourier coefficients. These...
Abstract. We develop a practical, distributed algorithm to detect events, identify measurement errors, and infer missing readings in ecological applications of wireless sensor netw...
Abstract— The electricity price duration curve (EPDC) represents the probability distribution function of the electricity price considered as a random variable. The price uncerta...
Tournament selection has been widely used and studied in evolutionary algorithms. To supplement the study of tournament selection, this paper provides several models describing th...
-- We characterize the best achievable performance of lossy compression algorithms operating on arbitrary random sources, and with respect to general distortion measures. Direct an...
