Fast Algorithms for Logconcave Functions: Sampling, Rounding, Integration and Optimization
We prove that the hit-and-run random walk is rapidly mixing for an arbitrary logconcave distribution starting from any point in the support. This extends the work of [26], where t...

Music evolution in a complex system of interacting agents
The evolution of music, from random note strings to certain “pleasant” note sequences, is traced in a multi-agent computational model. A community of agents, with some musical ...

Source-Based Minimum Cost Multicasting: Intermediate-Node Selection with Potentially Low Cost
Abstract. In this paper, we propose a novel heuristic algorithm for constructing a minimum cost multicast tree. Our work is based on a directed asymmetric network and shows an impr...
