This paper presents the results of using sequential analysis to find increment sequences that minimize the average running time of Shellsort, for array sizes up to several thousan...
The objective of this paper is classifying images by the object categories they contain, for example motorbikes or dolphins. There are three areas of novelty. First, we introduce ...
The topological properties of a network directly impact the flow of information through a system. For example, in natural populations, the network of inter-individual contacts aff...
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...
We introduce a problem directly inspired by its application to DWDM (dense wavelength division multiplexing) network design. We are given a set of demands to be carried over a netw...
