Deterministic annealing for semi-supervised kernel machines
An intuitive approach to utilizing unlabeled data in kernel-based classification algorithms is to simply treat unknown labels as additional optimization variables. For marginbased...

Efficient atomic broadcast using deterministic merge
We present an approach for merging message streams from producers distributed over a network, using a deterministic algorithm that is independent of any nondeterminism of the syst...
