A modified fuzzy c-means algorithm for bias field estimation and segmentation of MRI data
In this paper, we present a novel algorithm for fuzzy segmentation of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data and estimation of intensity inhomogeneities using fuzzy logic. MRI inten...

Bounds on the performance of belief propagation decoding
We consider Gallager's soft decoding (belief propagation) algorithm for decoding low density parity check (LDPC) codes, when applied to an arbitrary binary-input symmetric-ou...

Some permutation routing algorithms for low-dimensional hypercubes
Oblivious permutation routing in binary d-cubes has been well studied in the literature. In a permutation routing, each node initially contains a packet with a destination such th...

MAX3SAT is exponentially hard to approximate if NP has positive dimension
Under the hypothesis that NP has positive p-dimension, we prove that any approximation algorithm A for MAX3SAT must satisfy at least one of the following:
