On the approximability of influence in social networks
In this paper, we study the spread of influence through a social network, in a model initially studied by Kempe, Kleinberg and Tardos [14, 15]: We are given a graph modeling a soc...

Local solutions for global problems in wireless networks
In this paper, we review a recently developed class of algorithms that solve global problems in unit distance wireless networks by means of local algorithms. A local algorithm is ...

Learning with attribute costs
We study an extension of the "standard" learning models to settings where observing the value of an attribute has an associated cost (which might be different for differ...

Minimizing communication cost in a distributed Bayesian network using a decentralized MDP
In complex distributed applications, a problem is often decomposed into a set of subproblems that are distributed to multiple agents. We formulate this class of problems with a tw...
