Solving k-Set Agreement with Stable Skeleton Graphs
In this paper we consider the k-set agreement problem in distributed round-based systems where processes communicate by message passing. We capture the synchrony and reliability o...

Coloring Sparse Random k-Colorable Graphs in Polynomial Expected Time
Abstract. Feige and Kilian [5] showed that finding reasonable approximative solutions to the coloring problem on graphs is hard. This motivates the quest for algorithms that eithe...

On the locality of bounded growth
Many large-scale networks such as ad hoc and sensor networks, peer-to-peer networks, or the Internet have the property that the number of independent nodes does not grow arbitrari...

Non-breaking Similarity of Genomes with Gene Repetitions
Abstract. In this paper we define a new similarity measure, the nonbreaking similarity, which is the complement of the famous breakpoint distance between genomes (in general, betw...

Abrupt motion tracking via adaptive stochastic approximation Monte Carlo sampling
Robust tracking of abrupt motion is a challenging task in computer vision due to the large motion uncertainty. In this paper, we propose a stochastic approximation Monte Carlo (...
