We use combinatorial methods and permutation groups to classify homogeneous boolean functions. The property of symmetry of a boolean function limits the size of the function’s cl...
Abstract. The problem of proving a number is of a given arithmetic format with some prime elements, is raised in RSA undeniable signature, group signature and many other cryptograp...
We study an important data analysis operator, which extracts the k most important groups from data (i.e., the k groups with the highest aggregate values). In a data warehousing co...
