Importance sampling is a popular approach to estimate rare event failures of SRAM cells. We propose to improve importance sampling by probability collectives. First, we use “Kul...

The classical and well-studied group testing problem is to find d defectives in a set of n elements by group tests, which tell us for any chosen subset whether it contains defectiv...
Suppose we have n algorithms, quantum or classical, each computing some bit-value with bounded error probability. We describe a quantum algorithm that uses O( √ n) repetitions of...
—We show that the rank of a depth-3 circuit (over any field) that is simple, minimal and zero is at most O(k3 log d). The previous best rank bound known was 2O(k2 ) (log d)k−2...
The problem of converting deterministic finite automata into (short) regular expressions is considered. It is known that the required expression size is 2(n) in the worst case for ...
