Jensen's inequality is a powerful mathematical tool and one of the workhorses in statistical learning. Its applications therein include the EM algorithm, Bayesian estimation ...
We present a distributed clock synchronization algorithm that guarantees an exponentially improved bound of O(log D) on the clock skew between neighboring nodes in any graph G of ...

In the incremental version of the well-known k-median problem the objective is to compute an incremental sequence of facility sets F1 ⊆ F2 ⊆ .... ⊆ Fn, where each Fk contain...
Abstract--Power allocation is a promising approach for optimizing the performance of mobile radio systems in interference channels. In the present paper, the non-convex objective f...
