In this paper we first introduce four kinds of modification of Symmetric Scoring [1] which produce likelihood ratios that do not need to be explicitly normalized, i.e. T-norm, Z...
—In 1982, Kannan showed that ΣP 2 does not have nk -sized circuits for any k. Do smaller classes also admit such circuit lower bounds? Despite several improvements of Kannan’s...
In this paper, we formulate a new class of optimization problem, named the general CH-posynomial program, and reveal the general dominance property. We propose an efcient algorith...
Transitions on high capacitance busses in VLSI systems result in considerable power dissipation. Various coding schemes have been proposed in literature to encode the input signal...
In this paper we introduce MINIMAXSAT, a new Max-SAT solver that incorporates the best SAT and Max-SAT techniques. It can handle hard clauses (clauses of mandatory satisfaction as ...
