In this work we reconsider the replacement of predicate-like notation by functional terms, using a similar syntax to Functional Logic Programming, but under a completely different...
Abstract. We present a new derivative-free algorithm, ORBIT, for unconstrained local optimization of computationally expensive functions. A trust-region framework using interpolati...

Textbooks tell us that a birthday attack on a hash function h with range size r requires r1/2 trials (hash computations) to find a collision. But this is quite misleading, being t...
We present a novel approach to creating deformations of polygonal models using Radial Basis Functions (RBFs) to produce localized real-time deformations. Radial Basis Functions as...
This paper presents the fundamental theory and algorithms for identifying the most preferred alternative for a decision maker (DM) having a non-centrist (or extremist) preferentia...
