Using Substitution Matrices to Estimate Probability Distributions for Biological Sequences
Accurately estimating probabilities from observations is important for probabilistic-based approaches to problems in computational biology. In this paper we present a biologically...

Computing separable functions via gossip
Motivated by applications to sensor, peer-to-peer, and adhoc networks, we study the problem of computing functions of values at the nodes in a network in a totally distributed man...

A Spectrum of Behavioral Relations over LTSs on Probability Distributions
Probabilistic nondeterministic processes are commonly modeled as probabilistic LTSs (PLTSs, a.k.a. probabilistic automata). A number of logical characterizations of the main behavi...

Distributed Tuning Attempt Probability for Data Gathering in Random Access Wireless Sensor Networks
In this paper, we study the problem of data gathering in multi-hop wireless sensor networks. To tackle the high degree of channel contention and high probability of packet collisi...
