This paper investigates some modular powering functions suitable for cryptography. It is well known that the Rabin encryption function is a 4-to-1 mapping and breaking its one-wayn...
We present a general boosting method extending functional gradient boosting to optimize complex loss functions that are encountered in many machine learning problems. Our approach...
Optimizing the ratio of two functions of binary variables is a common task in many image analysis applications. In general, such a ratio is not amenable to graph-cut based optimiz...
Abstract. Esther is the interactive shell of Famke, a prototype implementation of a strongly typed operating system written in the functional programming language Clean. As usual, ...
We give an alternative proof of the fact that a planar function cannot exist on groups of even order. The argument involved leads us to define a class of functions which we
