Extracting Randomness from Samplable Distributions
Randomness extractors convert weak sources of randomness into an almost uniform distribution; the conversion uses a small amount of pure randomness. In algorithmic applications, t...

QoS Routing with Performance-Dependent Costs
Abstract—We study a network model in which each network link is associated with a set of delays and costs. These costs are a function of the delays and reflect the prices paid i...

Lower Bounds for Distributed Coin-Flipping and Randomized Consensus
We examine a class of collective coin- ipping games that arises from randomized distributed algorithms with halting failures. In these games, a sequence of local coin ips is gener...

Bounds for the computational power and learning complexity of analog neural nets
Abstract. It is shown that high-order feedforward neural nets of constant depth with piecewisepolynomial activation functions and arbitrary real weights can be simulated for Boolea...
