We show a tight relation between the behavior of unique games under parallel repetition and their semidefinite value. Let G be a unique game with alphabet size k. Suppose the semid...
Abstract. We present a new algorithm for upper bounding the maximum average linear hull probability for SPNs, a value required to determine provable security against linear cryptan...
We give a formal definition of geometric fitting in a way that suits computer vision applications. We point out that the performance of geometric fitting should be evaluated in...
In this paper, we initiate the study of small strong nets and prove bounds for axis-parallel rectangles, half spaces, strips and wedges. We also give some improved bounds for smal...
Background: Multiple sequence alignment is fundamental. Exponential growth in computation time appears to be inevitable when an optimal alignment is required for many sequences. E...
