We consider ranking and clustering problems related to the aggregation of inconsistent information. Ailon, Charikar, and Newman [1] proposed randomized constant factor approximatio...
DNA arrays measure the expression levels for thousands of genes simultaneously under different conditions. These measurements reflect many aspects of the underlying biological pro...
— We consider a dense wireless sensor network where the radio transceivers of the sensor nodes are heavily duty-cycled in order to conserve energy. The chief purpose of the senso...
