Journal ArticleDOI
Fall injuries in Baghdad from 2003 to 2014: results of a randomised household cluster survey
Barclay T. Stewart,Riyadh K Lafta,Sahar A. Esa Al Shatari,Megan Cherewick,Abraham D. Flaxman,Abraham D. Flaxman,Amy Hagopian,Gilbert Burnham,Adam L. Kushner,Adam L. Kushner +9 more
TL;DR: Falling was the most common cause of civilian injury in Baghdad and many injuries resulted in life-limiting disabilities, and households shouldered much of the burden after fall injury due to loss of income and/or medical expenditure, often resulting in food insecurity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Average-case analysis for combinatorial problems
Alan Frieze,Abraham D. Flaxman +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors consider the average case analysis of algorithms, focusing primarily on NP-hard combinatorial optimization problems, and present a catalog of distributions frequently used in average-case analysis and a collection of mathematical tools that have been useful in studying these distributions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Clustering with shallow trees
Marc Bailly-Bechet,Serena Bradde,Alfredo Braunstein,Abraham D. Flaxman,Laura Foini,Riccardo Zecchina +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, a message-passing method was proposed for hierarchical clustering based on the optimization of a cost function over trees of limited depth, and a messagepassing algorithm was derived to use it efficiently.
Journal ArticleDOI
