We prove that for any triangle-free intersection graph of n axis-parallel line segments in the plane, the independence number alpha of this graph is at least alpha n/4+ohm(root n). We complement this with a construction of a graph in this class satisfying ...
A graph H is a minor of a second graph G if G can be transformed into H by two operations: 1) deleting nodes and/or edges, or 2) contracting edges. Coarse-grained reconfigurable array (CGRA) application mapping is closely related to the graph minor problem ...
We study an energy market composed of producers who compete to supply energy to different markets and want to maximize their profits. The energy market is modeled by a graph representing a constrained power network where nodes represent the markets and lin ...
Machine learning has paved the way for the real-time monitoring of complex infrastructure and industrial systems. However, purely data-driven methods have not been able to learn the underlying dynamics and generalize them to operating conditions that have ...
Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) have emerged as a powerful tool for learning on graphs, demonstrating exceptional performance in various domains. However, as GNNs become increasingly popular, new challenges arise. One of the most pressing is the need to ensur ...
We study the privatization of distributed learning and optimization strategies. We focus on differential privacy schemes and study their effect on performance. We show that the popular additive random perturbation scheme degrades performance because it is ...
In this work, we develop a new framework for dynamic network flow pro-blems based on optimal transport theory. We show that the dynamic multicommodity minimum-cost network flow problem can be formulated as a multimarginal optimal transport problem, where t ...
We study the performance of Markov chains for the q-state ferromagnetic Potts model on random regular graphs. While the cases of the grid and the complete graph are by now well-understood, the case of random regular graphs has resisted a detailed analysis ...
In a recent paper, a procedure to reconstruct the attenuation function of a return-stroke current from the simultaneous measurements of the channel-base current and the radiated electromagnetic fields was presented. One of the assumptions of the whole fram ...
