Distribution-Free Property-Testing

Shirley Halevy, Eyal Kushilevitz
2007 SIAM journal on computing (Print)  
Chapter 8 Testing Monotonicity over Graph Products In this chapter we consider the problem of monotonicity testing over graph products.  ...  Monotonicity testing over graph products. We study the use of graph products in monotonicity testing from several aspects.  ...  It is left to prove that it is indeed a monotonicity tester. If f is monotone then clearly, by the definition of the tester, it is accepted by the tester with probability 1.  ...

L_p-Testers for Bounded Derivative Properties on Product Distributions [article]

Kashyap Dixit
2014 arXiv   pre-print
Previous results for L_p testing on [n]^d for this class were known for monotonicity and c-Lipschitz properties over uniformly distributed domains.  ...  We consider the problem of L_p-testing of class of bounded derivative properties over hypergrid domain with points distributed according to some product distribution.  ...  We unify the two settings and get better results for the L p -property testing over product distributions. Definition 1.1 formally defines the notion of L p -distance over general distributions.  ...

. • We show that noncommutative polynomial identity testing for algebraic branching programs over rationals is complete for the logspace counting class C = L, and over fields of characteristic p the problem  ...  In contrast the Permanent can be expressed as the Hadamard product of two monotone multilinear formulas of quadratic size.  ...  Next we show that identity testing noncommutative ABPs over any field is hard for NL by a reduction from directed graph reachability. Let (G, s, t) be a reachability instance.  ...

Superpolynomial Lower Bounds for Monotone Span Programs

László Babai, Anna Gál, Avi Wigderson
1999 Combinatorica  
We also show that the perfect matching function can be computed by polynomial size (non-monotone) span programs over arbitrary fields. * Part of this work has been presented at the 28th ACM STOC'96.  ...  Our lower bounds are based on an analysis of Paley-type bipartite graphs via Weil's character sum estimates.  ...  Based on Tutte's theorem and the Schwartz-Zippel lemma [Schw, Zi] about probabilistic testing of polynomial identities, Lovász [L] reduced the problem if a graph contains a perfect matching to testing  ...

Stress-strain behaviour of bamboo beyond its elastic limit under uniaxial compressive load, using the principles of plasticity and damage mechanics

D.S. Fozao, A.E. Foudjet
2020 Zenodo  
The stress-strain curves produced from the proposed mathematical model are compared with the test results and the comparison shows that the results from the model provide a good agreement with the test  ...  Several samples of the bamboo species Oxytenantera abyssinica, from the Congo Basin Rain Forest were tested to collect the necessary data for this study.  ...  Some of the graphs from the tests results are shown in figures 2a to 2h. The stress-strain graphs are made up of the unloading and reloading curves as well as the envelope curves.  ...

2018 arXiv   pre-print
The proposed scheme is particularly useful for processing signals on large-scale product graphs.  ...  Specifically, we leverage the product structure of the underlying domain and sample nodes from the graph factors.  ...  Furthermore, since the multiplication of two monotone nondecreasing functions results in a monotone non-decreasing function, and the addition of a constant preserves monotonicity, G is a monotone non-decreasing  ...

2013 arXiv   pre-print
Our results are based on new connections with the field of property testing. A number of open problems are presented.  ...  We initiate the study of mixing times of Markov chain under monotone censoring. Suppose we have some Markov Chain M on a state space Ω with stationary distribution π and a monotone set A ⊂Ω.  ...  In a different direction our results suggest testing non-product measures.  ...
