While traditional information extraction systems have been built to answer questions about facts, subjective information extraction systems will answer questions about feelings an...
How much can an imperfect source of randomness affect an algorithm? We examine several simple questions of this type concerning the long-term behavior of a random walk on a finite...

We give a polynomial-time algorithm to find a shortest contractible cycle (i.e. a closed walk without repeated vertices) in a graph embedded in a surface. This answers a question ...
The main aim of this short paper is to answer the following question. Given a fixed graph H, for which values of the degree d does a random d-regular graph on n vertices contain ...
We consider the problem of online sublinear expander reconstruction and its relation to random walks in “noisy” expanders. Given access to an adjacency list representation of ...
