Face Recognition with Weighted Locally Linear Embedding
We present an approach to recognizing faces with varying appearances which also considers the relative probability of occurrence for each appearance. We propose and demonstrate ex...

Exploiting locality of interactions using a policy-gradient approach in multiagent learning
In this paper, we propose a policy gradient reinforcement learning algorithm to address transition-independent Dec-POMDPs. This approach aims at implicitly exploiting the locality...

Constant-Time Approximation Algorithms via Local Improvements
We present a technique for transforming classical approximation algorithms into constant-time algorithms that approximate the size of the optimal solution. Our technique is applic...

On a Family of Strong Geometric Spanners That Admit Local Routing Strategies
We introduce a family of directed geometric graphs, denoted Gθ λ, that depend on two parameters λ and θ. For 0 ≤ θ < π 2 and 1 2 < λ < 1, the Gθ λ graph is a s...

Simulating data dissemination techniques for local reputation systems
In distributed scenarios the robustness of a reputation mechanism depends on the data available for computation. Especially in ad-hoc networks the amount of available data is rest...
