Fast Approximate PCPs
We investigate the question of when a prover can aid a verifier to reliably compute a function faster than if the verifier were to compute the function on its own. Our focus is ...

Iterative Markov Chain Monte Carlo Computation of Reference Priors and Minimax Risk
We present an iterative Markov chain Monte Carlo algorithm for computing reference priors and minimax risk for general parametric families. Our approach uses MCMC techniques based...

The Computational Complexity of Densest Region Detection
We investigate the computational complexity of the task of detecting dense regions of an unknown distribution from un-labeled samples of this distribution. We introduce a formal l...

Mechanism Design via Machine Learning
We use techniques from sample-complexity in machine learning to reduce problems of incentive-compatible mechanism design to standard algorithmic questions, for a wide variety of r...
