Simple Constructions of Almost k-Wise Independent Random Variables
We present three alternative simple constructions of small probability spaces on n bits for which any k bits are almost independent. The number of bits used to specify a point in ...

Random Bichromatic Matchings
Given a graph with edges colored Red and Blue, we wish to sample and approximately count the number of perfect matchings with exactly k Red edges. We study a Markov chain on the sp...

The impact of sample reduction on PCA-based feature extraction for supervised learning
“The curse of dimensionality” is pertinent to many learning algorithms, and it denotes the drastic raise of computational complexity and classification error in high dimension...

On unbiased sampling for unstructured peer-to-peer networks
This paper addresses the difficult problem of selecting representative samples of peer properties (e.g., degree, link bandwidth, number of files shared) in unstructured peer-to-p...

Sampling Bounds for Stochastic Optimization
A large class of stochastic optimization problems can be modeled as minimizing an objective function f that depends on a choice of a vector x ∈ X, as well as on a random external...
