An HDP-HMM for systems with state persistence
The hierarchical Dirichlet process hidden Markov model (HDP-HMM) is a flexible, nonparametric model which allows state spaces of unknown size to be learned from data. We demonstra...

Load Aware Broadcast in Mobile Ad Hoc Networks
In a wireless ad hoc network, the main issue of a good broadcast protocol is to attain maximum reachability with minimal packet forwarding. Existing protocols address this issue by...

Integrality gaps for Sherali-Adams relaxations
We prove strong lower bounds on integrality gaps of Sherali?Adams relaxations for MAX CUT, Vertex Cover, Sparsest Cut and other problems. Our constructions show gaps for Sherali?A...

Combining simplex with niche-based evolutionary computation for job-shop scheduling
We propose a hybrid algorithm (called ALPINE) between Genetic Algorithm and Dantzig's Simplex method to approximate optimal solutions for the Flexible Job-Shop Problem. Local...

Relaxation in text search using taxonomies
In this paper we propose a novel document retrieval model in which text queries are augmented with multi-dimensional taxonomy restrictions. These restrictions may be relaxed at a ...
