Motivated by applications in blockchains and sensor networks, we consider a model of $n$ nodes trying to reach consensus on their majority bit. Each node $i$ is assigned a bit at time zero, and is a finite automaton with $m$ bits of memory…
Consider a sensor network made of remote nodes connected to a common fusion center. In a recent work Blum and Sadler [1] propose the idea of ordered transmissions -sensors with more informative samples deliver their messages first- and…
A distributed consensus algorithm for estimating the maximum value of the initial measurements in a sensor network with communication noise is proposed. In the absence of communication noise, max estimation can be done by updating the state…

Neighbor discovery is a fundamental task for wireless networks deployment. It is essential for setup and maintenance of networks and is typically a precondition for further communication. In this work we focus on passive discovery of…
Learning with label dependent label noise has been extensively explored in both theory and practice; however, dealing with instance (i.e., feature) and label dependent label noise continues to be a challenging task. The difficulty arises…
In this paper, we investigate the complexity of Maximum Independent Set (MIS) in the class of $H$-free graphs, that is, graphs excluding a fixed graph as an induced subgraph. Given that the problem remains $NP$-hard for most graphs $H$, we…

In the Graph Reconstruction (GR) problem, a player initially only knows the vertex set $V$ of an input graph $G=(V, E)$ and is required to learn its set of edges $E$. To this end, the player submits queries to an oracle and must deduce $E$…
