We give an O(n lg n)-time algorithm for counting the number of inversions in a permutation on n elements. This improves a long-standing previous bound of O(n lg n/ lg lg n) that ...
Modeling the behavior of imperfect agents from a small number of observations is a difficult, but important task. In the singleagent decision-theoretic setting, inverse optimal co...
We consider a general approach to the hoary problem of (im)proving circuit lower bounds. We define notions of hardness condensing and hardness extraction, in analogy to the corres...
We study the dynamical behavior of the discontinuous Galerkin finite element method for initial value problems in ordinary differential equations. We make two different assumptions...
In this paper, a novel approximate link-state dissemination framework, called TROP, is proposed for shared backup path protection (SBPP) in Multi-Protocol Label Switching (MPLS) ne...
