Abstract. A fundamental goal of computational complexity (and foundations of cryptography) is to find a polynomial-time samplable distribution (e.g., the uniform distribution) and...
We propose a novel routing framework called PWave that supports multi-source multi-sink anycast routing for wireless sensor networks. A distributed and scalable potential field es...
Quadratic Programming (QP) is the well-studied problem of maximizing over {−1, 1} values the quadratic form i=j aijxixj. QP captures many known combinatorial optimization proble...
This paper considers the problem of electing an eventual leader in an asynchronous shared memory system. While this problem has received a lot of attention in messagepassing syste...
The Conditional Random Fields (CRF) model, using
patch-based classification bound with context information,
has recently been widely adopted for image segmentation/
labeling. In...
