For any q > 1, let MODq be a quantum gate that determines if the number of 1’s in the input is divisible by q. We show that for any q, t > 1, MODq is equivalent to MODt (u...
Coalition formation is a key problem in automated negotiation among self-interested agents, and other multiagent applications. A coalition of agents can sometimes accomplish thing...
In this paper we consider two basic questions regarding the query complexity of testing graph properties in the adjacency matrix model. The first question refers to the relation ...
: Following celebrated failures stakeholders begin to ask questions about how to improve the systems and processes they operate, manage or depend on. In this process it is easy to ...
We explore a general Bayesian active learning setting, in which the learner can ask arbitrary yes/no questions. We derive upper and lower bounds on the expected number of queries r...
