Collaborative scoring with dishonest participants
Consider a set of players that are interested in collectively evaluating a set of objects. We develop a collaborative scoring protocol in which each player evaluates a subset of t...

Fast distributed approximation algorithms for vertex cover and set cover in anonymous networks
We present a distributed algorithm that finds a maximal edge packing in O(∆ + log∗ W) synchronous communication rounds in a weighted graph, independent of the number of nodes...

Automata for Coalgebras: An Approach Using Predicate Liftings
Universal Coalgebra provides the notion of a coalgebra as the natural mathematical generalization of state-based evolving systems such as (infinite) words, trees, and transition s...

k-means requires exponentially many iterations even in the plane
The k-means algorithm is a well-known method for partitioning n points that lie in the d-dimensional space into k clusters. Its main features are simplicity and speed in practice....

Kinetic spanners in Rd
We present a new (1 + ε)-spanner for sets of n points in Rd . Our spanner has size O(n/εd−1 ) and maximum degree O(logd n). The main advantage of our spanner is that it can be...
