Reverse-Engineering MAC: A Non-Cooperative Game Model
— This paper reverse-engineers backoff-based random-access MAC protocols in ad-hoc networks. We show that the contention resolution algorithm in such protocols is implicitly part...

Local minima and plateaus in hierarchical structures of multilayer perceptrons
Local minima and plateaus pose a serious problem in learning of neural networks. We investigate the hierarchical geometric structure of the parameter space of three-layer perceptr...

Algorithms for the Topological Watershed
The watershed transformation is an efficient tool for segmenting grayscale images. An original approach to the watershed [1,9] consists in modifying the original image by lowering...

Lower Bounds on the Randomized Communication Complexity of Read-Once Functions
Abstract. We prove lower bounds on the randomized two-party communication complexity of functions that arise from read-once boolean formulae. A read-once boolean formula is a formu...

Fixed-Point Definability and Polynomial Time on Graphs with Excluded Minors
We prove that fixed-point logic with counting captures polynomial time on all classes of graphs with excluded minors. That is, for every class C of graphs such that some graph H is...
