Local Algorithms for Approximate Inference in Minor-Excluded Graphs
We present a new local approximation algorithm for computing MAP and logpartition function for arbitrary exponential family distribution represented by a finite-valued pair-wise ...

Divide-and-coordinate: DCOPs by agreement
In this paper we investigate an approach to provide approximate, anytime algorithms for DCOPs that can provide quality guarantees. At this aim, we propose the divide-and-coordinat...

Average-case tractability of manipulation in voting via the fraction of manipulators
Recent results have established that a variety of voting rules are computationally hard to manipulate in the worst-case; this arguably provides some guarantee of resistance to man...
