— Non-negative matrix factorization (NMF), i.e. V ≈ WH where both V, W and H are non-negative has become a widely used blind source separation technique due to its part based r...
There is a large literature on the rate of convergence problem for general unconstrained stochastic approximations. Typically, one centers the iterate n about the limit point then...
A distance oracle is a compact representation of the shortest distance matrix of a graph. It can be queried to retrieve approximate distances and corresponding paths between any p...
This paper proves a necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of iterative algorithms that achieve approximate Byzantine consensus in arbitrary directed graphs, where e...
Mobile devices equipped with positioning capabilities (e.g., GPS) can ask location-dependent queries to Location Based Services (LBS). To protect privacy, the user location must n...
