Quadratic programming relaxations for metric labeling and Markov random field MAP estimation
Quadratic program relaxations are proposed as an alternative to linear program relaxations and tree reweighted belief propagation for the metric labeling or MAP estimation problem...

Black-Box Randomized Reductions in Algorithmic Mechanism Design
We give the first black-box reduction from arbitrary approximation algorithms to truthful approximation mechanisms for a non-trivial class of multiparameter problems. Specifically,...

Finding Maximum Cliques with Distributed Ants
In this paper we describe an ant system algorithm (ASMC) for the problem of finding the maximum clique in a given graph. In the algorithm each ant has only local knowledge of the ...

How to distribute sensors in a random field?
In this paper, we study the optimal way of distributing sensors in a random field to minimize the estimation distortion. We show that this problem is equivalent to certain proble...
