Biometric random number generators
Abstract Up to now biometric methods have been used in cryptography for authentication purposes. In this paper we propose to use biological data for generating sequences of random ...

Efficient Belief Propagation with Learned Higher-Order Markov Random Fields
Belief propagation (BP) has become widely used for low-level vision problems and various inference techniques have been proposed for loopy graphs. These methods typically rely on a...

Characterization of a New Restart Strategy for Randomized Backtrack Search
We propose an improved restart strategy for randomized backtrack search, and evaluate its performance by comparing to other heuristic and stochastic search techniques for solving r...

Randomized Robot-Assisted Relocation of Sensors for Coverage Repair in Wireless Sensor Networks
—In wireless sensor networks (WSN), stochastic node dropping and unpredictable node failure greatly impair coverage, creating sensing holes, while locally redundant sensors exist...

Characterizing continuous time random walks on time varying graphs
In this paper we study the behavior of a continuous time random walk (CTRW) on a stationary and ergodic time varying dynamic graph. We establish conditions under which the CTRW is...
