The unavailable candidate model: a decision-theoretic view of social choice
One of the fundamental problems in the theory of social choice is aggregating the rankings of a set of agents (or voters) into a consensus ranking. Rank aggregation has found appl...

The maximum hypervolume set yields near-optimal approximation
In order to allow a comparison of (otherwise incomparable) sets, many evolutionary multiobjective optimizers use indicator functions to guide the search and to evaluate the perfor...

Noise-tolerant learning, the parity problem, and the statistical query model
We describe a slightly subexponential time algorithm for learning parity functions in the presence of random classification noise, a problem closely related to several cryptograph...

Minimum Cuts in Near-Linear Time
We significantly improve known time bounds for solving the minimum cut problem on undirected graphs. We use a "semiduality" between minimum cuts and maximum spanning tree...

A new technique for distributed symmetry breaking
We introduce Multi-Trials, a new technique for symmetry breaking for distributed algorithms and apply it to various problems in general graphs. For instance, we present three rand...
