This paper considers additive factorial hidden Markov models, an extension to HMMs where the state factors into multiple independent chains, and the output is an additive function...
We continue the recent line of work on the connection between semidefinite programming-based approximation algorithms and the Unique Games Conjecture. Given any boolean 2-CSP (or...
— We address the problem of connection preemption in a multi-class network environment. Our objective is: i) to minimize the number of preempted connections, and ii) to minimize ...
In this work we present new in-network techniques for communication efficient approximate query processing in wireless sensornets. We use a model-based approach that constructs a...

In this paper, we propose GAD (General Activity Detection) for fast clustering on large scale data. Within this framework we design a set of algorithms for different scenarios: (...
