Prior Entanglement, Message Compression and Privacy in Quantum Communication
Consider a two-party quantum communication protocol for computing some function f : {0, 1}n × {0, 1}n → Z. We show that the first message of P can be compressed to O(k) classi...

High-Performance Algorithm Engineering for Computational Phylogenetics
Abstract. Phylogeny reconstruction from molecular data poses complex optimization problems: almost all optimization models are NP-hard and thus computationally intractable. Yet app...

Modelling with implicit surfaces that interpolate
We introduce new techniques for modelling with interpolating implicit surfaces. This form of implicit surface was first used for problems of surface reconstruction [24] and shape ...
