Minimizing the Diameter of a Network Using Shortcut Edges
We study the problem of minimizing the diameter of a graph by adding k shortcut edges, for speeding up communication in an existing network design. We develop constant-factor appro...

An Integral Solution to Surface Evolution PDEs Via Geo-cuts
We introduce a new approach to modelling gradient flows of contours and surfaces. While standard variational methods (e.g. level sets) compute local interface motion in a different...

Testing k-wise and almost k-wise independence
In this work, we consider the problems of testing whether a distribution over {0, 1}n is k-wise (resp. ( , k)-wise) independent using samples drawn from that distribution. For the...
