Title: Some Conditional Binary Sequences
Author(s): Ian H. Dinwoodie*+
Companies: Duke University
Address: , Durham , NC, 27708,
Keywords: binary sequence ; simulation ; Groebner basis
Abstract:

Sampling conditional binary sequences is useful for applications like reverse engineering binary dynamics and simulating social network models. We consider examples where lexicographic Groebner bases can be used to do most of the hard computations, and examples where algebra does not work and numerical methods are better.
