The classical direct product theorem for circuits says that if a Boolean function f : {0, 1}n → {0, 1} is somewhat hard to compute on average by small circuits, then the correspo...

We consider the problem of identifying a team of skilled individuals for collaboration, in the presence of a social network. Each node in the input social network may be an expert...
Normalized Cut is a widely used technique for solving a
variety of problems. Although finding the optimal normalized
cut has proven to be NP-hard, spectral relaxations can
be ap...

We consider a visual scene analysis scenario where objects (e.g. people, cars) pass through the viewing field of a static camera and need to be detected and segmented from the bac...
