Understanding what construction strategy has a chance to be a good hash function is extremely important nowadays. In TCC'04, Maurer et al. [13] introduced the notion of indiff...
In this paper we formalize a general model of cryptanalytic time/memory tradeoffs for the inversion of a random function f : {0, 1, . . . , N - 1} {0, 1, . . . , N - 1}. The model...
This paper introduces a simple and very general theory of compressive sensing. In this theory, the sensing mechanism simply selects sensing vectors independently at random from a ...
A merger is a probabilistic procedure which extracts the randomness out of any (arbitrarily correlated) set of random variables, as long as one of them is uniform. Our main result...
The paper extends the notion of linear programming boosting to handle uneven datasets. Extensive experiments with text classification problem compare the performance of a number o...
