Capacity Scaling of Wireless Networks With Inhomogeneous Node Density: Lower Bounds
Abstract-- We consider static ad hoc wireless networks comprising significant inhomogeneities in the node spatial distribution over the area, and analyze the scaling laws of their ...

A Lower Bound for the Breakpoint Phylogeny Problem
Breakpoint phylogenies methods have been shown to be an effective way to extract phylogenetic information from gene order data. Currently, the only practical breakpoint phylogeny a...

Submodular Approximation: Sampling-based Algorithms and Lower Bounds
We introduce several generalizations of classical computer science problems obtained by replacing simpler objective functions with general submodular functions. The new problems i...

Tight bounds for the partial-sums problem
We close the gaps between known lower and upper bounds for the online partial-sums problem in the RAM and group models of computation. If elements are chosen from an abstract grou...

Bounds on the Bethe Free Energy for Gaussian Networks
We address the problem of computing approximate marginals in Gaussian probabilistic models by using mean field and fractional Bethe approximations. As an extension of Welling and ...
