Markov Chain Monte Carlo using Tree-Based Priors on Model Structure
We present a general framework for defining priors on model structure and sampling from the posterior using the Metropolis-Hastings algorithm. The key ideas are that structure pri...

Low Randomness Rumor Spreading via Hashing
We consider the classical rumor spreading problem, where a piece of information must be disseminated from a single node to all n nodes of a given network. We devise two simple pus...
