While quantitative probabilistic networks (QPNs) allow the expert to state influences between nodes in the network as influence signs, rather than conditional probabilities, infer...
We develop a new technique for proving lower bounds in property testing, by showing a strong connection between testing and communication complexity. We give a simple scheme for r...
We consider the complexity of join problems, focusing on equijoins, spatial-overlap joins, and set-containment joins. We use a graph pebbling model to characterize these joins com...

Abstract—Network flow models serve as a popular mathematical framework for the analysis and optimization of Multi-hop Wireless Networks. They also serve to provide the understan...
Competent Genetic Algorithms can efficiently address problems in which the linkage between variables is limited to a small order k. Problems with higher order dependencies can onl...
