In this paper we suggest evaluating the importance of a website with the mean frequency of visiting the website for the Markov chain on the Internet Graph describing random surfi...
We give the first black-box reduction from arbitrary approximation algorithms to truthful approximation mechanisms for a non-trivial class of multiparameter problems. Specifically,...
We derive an easy-to-compute approximate bound for the range of step-sizes for which the constant-modulus algorithm (CMA) will remain stable if initialized close to a minimum of t...
In this paper we analyze wave propagation in three-dimensional random media. We consider a source with limited spatial and temporal support that generates spherically diverging wav...
The phenomenon of particle bursts, a well-known feature of PSO is investigated. Their origin is concluded to lie in multiplicative stochasticity, previously encountered in the stu...
