One of the open problems listed in Rivest and Schapire, 1989] is whether and how that the copies of L in their algorithm can be combined into one for better performance. This pape...
We develop a new technique of proving lower bounds for the randomized communication complexity of boolean functions in the multiparty `Number on the Forehead' model. Our meth...
Abstract. Network decontamination (or disinfection) is a widely studied problem in distributed computing. Network sites are assumed to be contaminated (e.g., by a virus) and a team...
Abstract. The relationship between automata and logics has been investigated since the 1960s. In particular, it was shown how to determine, given an automaton, whether or not it is...
We propose and analyze a distribution learning algorithm for a subclass of Acyclic Probabilistic Finite Automata (APFA). This subclass is characterized by a certain distinguishabi...
