Sampling search-engine results
We consider the problem of efficiently sampling Web search engine query results. In turn, using a small random sample instead of the full set of results leads to efficient approxi...

Better Binary List-Decodable Codes Via Multilevel Concatenation
We give a polynomial time construction of binary codes with the best currently known trade-off between rate and error-correction radius. Specifically, we obtain linear codes ove...

Multi-objective Model Checking of Markov Decision Processes
We study and provide efficient algorithms for multi-objective model checking problems for Markov Decision Processes (MDPs). Given an MDP, M, and given multiple linear-time (ω-regu...
