Belief propagation (BP) is an increasingly popular method of performing approximate inference on arbitrary graphical models. At times, even further approximations are required, wh...

We prove that for any positive integer k, there is a constant ck such that a randomly selected set of cknk log n Boolean vectors with high probability supports a balanced k-wise i...
Abstract. Recent works have shown the advantage of using Active Learning methods, such as the Query by Committee (QBC) algorithm, to various learning problems. This class of Algori...
Abstract. Extensions of the randomized tournaments techniques introduced in [6, 7] to approximate solutions of 1-median and diameter computation of finite subsets of general metri...
