Learning a Hidden Graph Using O(log n) Queries Per Edge
We consider the problem of learning a general graph using edge-detecting queries. In this model, the learner may query whether a set of vertices induces an edge of the hidden grap...

Discovery of Human-Competitive Image Texture Feature Extraction Programs Using Genetic Programming
In this paper we show how genetic programming can be used to discover useful texture feature extraction algorithms. Grey level histograms of different textures are used as inputs ...

A new multilayered PCP and the hardness of hypergraph vertex cover
Given a k-uniform hypergraph, the Ek-Vertex-Cover problem is to find the smallest subset of vertices that intersects every hyperedge. We present a new multilayered PCP constructi...

Information-directed routing in ad hoc sensor networks
—In a sensor network, data routing is tightly coupled to the needs of a sensing task, and hence the application semantics. This paper introduces the novel idea of information-dir...

A Lower Bound for Testing 3-Colorability in Bounded-Degree Graphs
We consider the problem of testing 3-colorability in the bounded-degree model. We show that, for small enough ε, every tester for 3colorability must have query complexity Ω(n)....
