Abstract. The performance of an information retrieval system is usually measured in terms of two different criteria, precision and recall. This way, the optimization of any of its...
A quantified Boolean formula is true, if for any existentially quantified variable there exists a Boolean function depending on the preceding universal variables, such that substi...
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...
We give direct constructions of pseudorandom function (PRF) families based on conjectured hard lattice problems and learning problems. Our constructions are asymptotically effici...
Recently, 9-variable Boolean functions having nonlinearity 241, which is strictly greater than the bent concatenation bound of 240, have been discovered in the class of Rotation Sy...
