This talk will be an introduction to Social Choice Theory, which analyses methods to combine preferences of large number of voters to obtain a result that is fair .
We show that in the Poisson continuum percolation model on the plane there is a sharp transition from a regime which admits unbounded vacant clusters to a regime which admits unbounded occupied clusters.
Recommendation systems are commonly used in e-commerce to suggest relevant content to users. Popular examples include Amazon, iTunes Genius, Google News and typically they operate on a corpus of millions of users/items.
We study the quantum query complexity of minor-closed graph properties, which include such problems as determining whether a graph is planar, is a forest, or does not contain a path of a given length.
`Dyad' means a pair, `dyadic' means binary, and in this talk I'll present some simple algorithms for rounding real vectors to 0-1 vectors without losing much.
This talk will focus on the problem of large scale multi-sensor multi-data-set sensor based perception and sensor fusion. The application context of this study is large scale terrain modeling for mining automation.
