Better extractors for better codes?
We present an explicit construction of codes that can be list decoded from a fraction (1 - ) of errors in sub-exponential time and which have rate / logO(1) (1/). This comes close...

Discovering Cyclic Causal Models by Independent Components Analysis
We generalize Shimizu et al's (2006) ICA-based approach for discovering linear non-Gaussian acyclic (LiNGAM) Structural Equation Models (SEMs) from causally sufficient, conti...

No-commitment branch and bound search for distributed constraint optimization
We present a new polynomial-space algorithm for solving Distributed Constraint Optimization problems (DCOP). The algorithm, called NCBB, is branch and bound search with modificati...

Testing k-wise and almost k-wise independence
In this work, we consider the problems of testing whether a distribution over {0, 1}n is k-wise (resp. ( , k)-wise) independent using samples drawn from that distribution. For the...
