Abstract—We present a unified graphical model framework for describing compound codes and deriving iterative decoding algorithms. After reviewing a variety of graphical models (...
Many search engines and other web applications suggest auto-completions as the user types in a query. The suggestions are generated from hidden underlying databases, such as query...
We address the issue of inapproximability of the wavelength assignment problem in wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) optical networks. We prove that in an n-node WDM optical ne...
We describe online algorithms for learning a rotation from pairs of unit vectors in Rn . We show that the expected regret of our online algorithm compared to the best fixed rotati...
Eigenvectors of data matrices play an important role in many computational problems, ranging from signal processing to machine learning and control. For instance, algorithms that ...
