A fast estimation of SRAM failure rate using probability collectives
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...

Bounds for Nonadaptive Group Tests to Estimate the Amount of Defectives
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...

Quantum Search on Bounded-Error Inputs
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...

An Almost Optimal Rank Bound for Depth-3 Identities
—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...

Optimal Lower Bounds on Regular Expression Size Using Communication Complexity
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 ...
