We address the problem of learning the parameters in graphical models when inference is intractable. A common strategy in this case is to replace the partition function with its B...
Background: Horizontal gene transfer (HGT) has allowed bacteria to evolve many new capabilities. Because transferred genes perform many medically important functions, such as conf...
It is well known that after placing n balls independently and uniformly at random into n bins, the fullest bin holds (logn=log logn) balls with high probability. Recently, Azar et...

Recent studies on mobility modeling have focused on characterizing user mobility from real traces of wireless LANs (WLANs) and creating mobility models based on such characterizat...
Resource discovery is an important process for finding suitable nodes that satisfy application requirements in large loosely-coupled distributed systems. Besides inter-node heter...
