This paper considers localization of a source or a sensor from distance measurements. We argue that linear algorithms proposed for this purpose are susceptible to poor noise perfor...
A wireless sensor network consists of a large number of small, resource-constrained devices and usually operates in hostile environments that are prone to link and node failures. ...
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...
We propose an algorithm for detecting bridges and estimating geodesic distances from a set of noisy samples of an underlying manifold. Finding geodesics on a nearest neighbors gra...
Abstract. Since in general it is NP-hard to solve the minimum dominating set problem even approximatively, a lot of work has been dedicated to central and distributed approximation...
