Lower Bounds on Correction Networks
Correction networks are comparator networks that sort inputs differing from sorted sequences of length N in a small number of positions. The main application of such networks is producing fault-tolerant sorting networks. We show the lower bound 1.44log2 N on the depth of correction networks settling an open problem from [7]. This bound is tight since the upper bound 1.44log2 N is known.
متن کاملLower bounds on the signed (total) $k$-domination number
Let $G$ be a graph with vertex set $V(G)$. For any integer $kge 1$, a signed (total) $k$-dominating functionis a function $f: V(G) rightarrow { -1, 1}$ satisfying $sum_{xin N[v]}f(x)ge k$ ($sum_{xin N(v)}f(x)ge k$)for every $vin V(G)$, where $N(v)$ is the neighborhood of $v$ and $N[v]=N(v)cup{v}$. The minimum of the values$sum_{vin V(G)}f(v)$, taken over all signed (total) $k$-dominating functi...
متن کاملLower Bound Bayesian Networks - An Efficient Inference of Lower Bounds on Probability Distributions in Bayesian Networks
We present a new method to propagate lower bounds on conditional probability distributions in conventional Bayesian networks. Our method guarantees to provide outer approximations of the exact lower bounds. A key advantage is that we can use any available algorithms and tools for Bayesian networks in order to represent and infer lower bounds. This new method yields results that are provable exa...
متن کاملLower bounds on kernelization
Preprocessing (data reduction or kernelization) to reduce instance size is one of the most commonly deployed heuristics in the implementation practice to tackle computationally hard problems. However, a systematic theoretical study of them remained elusive so far. One of the reasons for this is that if an input to an NP -hard problem can be processed in polynomial time to an equivalent one of s...
متن کاملLower Bounds on Data Collection Time in Sensor Networks
In this paper, we study the time complexity of data collection in sensor networks. A simple mathematical model for sensor networks regarded as lines, multi-lines and trees is defined and corresponding optimal schedules are provided. A lower bound of data collection time on general networks is also derived. Furthermore, we discuss the data collection problem where each node can transmit arbitrar...
