This paper evaluates linear models for predicting the Digital Unix five-second load average from 1 to 30 seconds into the future. A detailed statistical study of a large number of...
In this paper, we present the first average-case analysis proving an expected polynomial running time for an exact algorithm for the 0/1 knapsack problem. In particular, we prove,...
We present Gatekeeper, a decentralized protocol that performs Sybil-resilient node admission control based on a social network. Gatekeeper can admit most honest nodes while limiti...
An approach to simultaneous document classification and word clustering is developed using a two-way mixture model of Poisson distributions. Each document is represented by a vect...
In the symmetric group on a set of size 2n, let P2n denote the conjugacy class of involutions with no fixed points (equivalently, we refer to these as “pairings”, since each ...
