Parameter estimation for exponential sums by approximate Prony method
The recovery of signal parameters from noisy sampled data is a fundamental problem in digital signal processing. In this paper, we consider the following spectral analysis problem...

Lower bounds for distributed markov chain problems
We study the worst-case communication complexity of distributed algorithms computing a path problem based on stationary distributions of random walks in a network G with the caveat...

Reeb graphs: approximation and persistence
Given a continuous function f : X → IR on a topological space X, its level set f−1 (a) changes continuously as the real value a changes. Consequently, the connected components...

What Cannot be Learned with Bethe Approximations
We address the problem of learning the parameters in graphical models when inference is intractable. A common strategy in this case is to replace the partition function with its B...

Approximate Bandwidth Allocation for Compositional Real-Time Systems
Allocation of bandwidth among components is a fundamental problem in compositional real-time systems. Stateof-the-art algorithms for bandwidth allocation use either exponential-ti...
