Energy Efficient Routing for Statistical Inference of Markov Random Fields
The problem of routing of sensor observations for optimal detection of a Markov random field (MRF) at a designated fusion center is analyzed. Assuming that the correlation structur...

A Stateful Implementation of a Random Function Supporting Parity Queries over Hypercubes
Abstract. Motivated by an open problem recently suggested by Goldreich et al., we study truthful implementations of a random binary function supporting compound XOR queries over su...

On Quadratic Threshold CSPs
A predicate P : {−1, 1}k → {0, 1} can be associated with a constraint satisfaction problem Max CSP(P). P is called “approximation resistant” if Max CSP(P) cannot be approxi...

Clairvoyant scheduling of random walks
Two infinite walks on the same finite graph are called compatible if it is possible to introduce delays into them in such a way that they never collide. Years ago, Peter Winkler a...
