When the epistasis of the fitness function is bounded by a constant, we show that the expected fitness of an offspring of the (1+1)-EA can be efficiently computed for any point...
A (directed) network of people connected by ratings or trust scores, and a model for propagating those trust scores, is a fundamental building block in many of today's most s...

Monotone systems of polynomial equations (MSPEs) are systems of fixed-point equations X1 = f1(X1, . . . , Xn), . . . , Xn = fn(X1, . . . , Xn) where each fi is a polynomial with p...

Many software security policies can be encoded as aspects that identify and guard security-relevant program operations. Bugs in these aspectually-implemented security policies oft...
We propose an algorithm for contouring k-manifolds (k = 1, 2) embedded in an arbitrary n-dimensional space. We assume (n−k) geometric constraints are represented as polynomial e...
