How to rank with few errors
We present a polynomial time approximation scheme (PTAS) for the minimum feedback arc set problem on tournaments. A simple weighted generalization gives a PTAS for KemenyYoung ran...

Programmable clustering
We initiate a novel study of clustering problems. Rather than specifying an explicit objective function to optimize, our framework allows the user of clustering algorithm to speci...

Virtual coordinates for ad hoc and sensor networks
In many applications of wireless ad hoc and sensor networks, position-awareness is of great importance. Often, as in the case of geometric routing, it is sufficient to have virtua...

Proofs of Retrievability via Hardness Amplification
Proofs of Retrievability (PoR), introduced by Juels and Kaliski [JK07], allow the client to store a file F on an untrusted server, and later run an efficient audit protocol in whi...

Markov Logic Sets: Towards Lifted Information Retrieval Using PageRank and Label Propagation
Inspired by “GoogleTM Sets” and Bayesian sets, we consider the problem of retrieving complex objects and relations among them, i.e., ground atoms from a logical concept, given...
