Simultaneous Source Location problem on Trees

Presented by Josiah Carlson

Abstract:

This short talk will cover some preliminaries to the Simultaneous Source Location problem on Trees, as well as a few variant solutions that brings us to the currently known best solution to the problem. The new algorithm significantly improves both space and time bounds in the general case to be within a log factor of the balanced case.
