Fast, Fair, and Efficient Flows in Networks
Abstract. We study the problem of minimizing the maximum latency of flows in networks with congestion. We show that this problem is NP-hard, even when all arc latency functions ar...

Successive Refinement for Hypothesis Testing and Lossless One-Helper Problem
Abstract--We investigate two closely related successive refinement (SR) coding problems: 1) In the hypothesis testing (HT) problem, bivariate hypothesis H0 : PXY against H1 : PXPY ...

On Restricted-Focus-of-Attention Learnability of Boolean Functions
In the k-Restricted-Focus-of-Attention (k-RFA) model, only k of the n attributes of each example are revealed to the learner, although the set of visible attributes in each example...
