We consider the problem of testing the commutativity of a black-box group specified by its k generators. The complexity (in terms of k) of this problem was first considered by Pa...
The k-round two-party communication complexity was studied in the deterministic model by [14] and [4] and in the probabilistic model by [20] and [6]. We present new lower bounds th...
This paper describes a clustering algorithm for vector quantizers using a "stochastic association model". It offers a new simple and powerful softmax adaptation rule. Th...
Motivated by problems of pattern statistics, we study the limit distribution of the random variable counting the number of occurrences of the symbol a in a word of length n chosen...

—Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) require robustness against channel induced errors while retransmission based schemes prove too costly for energy constrained sensor nodes. Channe...
