How much can an imperfect source of randomness affect an algorithm? We examine several simple questions of this type concerning the long-term behavior of a random walk on a finite...

We study probabilistic bit-probe schemes for the membership problem. Given a set A of at most n elements from the universe of size m we organize such a structure that queries of t...
We study the design of truthful mechanisms that do not use payments for the generalized assignment problem (GAP) and its variants. An instance of the GAP consists of a bipartite g...
In document retrieval task, random projection (RP) is a useful technique of dimension reduction. It can be obtained very quickly yet the recalculation is not necessary to any chang...
The problem of tracking pedestrians from a moving car is a challenging one. The Condensation tracking algorithm is appealing for its generality and potential for real-time implemen...
