In this paper, we propose a simple and natural randomized algorithm to embed a tree T in a given graph G. The algorithm can be viewed as a "self-avoiding tree-indexed random ...
In the Connected Dominating Set problem we are given as input a graph G and a positive integer k, and are asked if there is a set S of at most k vertices of G such that S is a dom...
Abstract— We study averaging algorithms, when implemented in large networks of wirelessly connected elements. We extend the notion of “Increasing Correctness” (IC) which was ...
Bidimensionality theory was introduced by Demaine et al. [JACM 2005 ] as a framework to obtain algorithmic results for hard problems on minor closed graph classes. The theory has ...
Markov random fields are designed to represent structured dependencies among large collections of random variables, and are well-suited to capture the structure of real-world sign...
