We prove and extend a conjecture of Kempe, Kleinberg, and Tardos (KKT) on the spread of influence in social networks. A social network can be represented by a directed graph where...
In this paper we describe a new method for improving the representation of textures in blends of multiple images based on a Markov Random Field (MRF) algorithm. We show that direc...
Abstract. Maximum likelihood (ML) is an increasingly popular optimality criterion for selecting evolutionary trees [Felsenstein 1981]. Finding optimal ML trees appears to be a very...
In this work, we propose a variation of a direct reinforcement learning algorithm, suitable for usage with spiking neurons based on the spike response model (SRM). The SRM is a bi...

Abstract— In this paper, we address the problem of lifetime optimization under storage constraint for wireless sensor networks with a mobile sink node. The problem is particularl...
