Evolutionary MCMC Sampling and Optimization in Discrete Spaces
The links between genetic algorithms and population-based Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methods are explored. Genetic algorithms (GAs) are well-known for their capability to opt...

Computer Assisted Peptide Design and Optimization with Topology Preserving Neural Networks
Abstract. We propose a non-standard neural network called TPNN which offers the direct mapping from a peptide sequence to a property of interest in order to model the quantitative ...

Towards truthful mechanisms for binary demand games: a general framework
The family of Vickrey-Clarke-Groves (VCG) mechanisms is arguably the most celebrated achievement in truthful mechanism design. However, VCG mechanisms have their limitations. They...

Protecting against key-exposure: strongly key-insulated encryption with optimal threshold
A new framework for protection against key exposure was recently suggested by Dodis et. al. [16]. We take its realization further towards practice by presenting simple new schemes...
