We give a simple combinatorial proof of the Chernoff-Hoeffding concentration bound [Che52, Hoe63], which says that the sum of independent {0, 1}-valued random variables is highly ...
— With the increasing reliance of complex real-world applications on composite web services assembled from independently developed component services, there is a growing need for...

As soft processors are increasingly used in diverse applications, there is a need to evolve their microarchitectures in a way that suits the FPGA implementation substrate. This pa...
Abduction is a fundamental form of nonmonotonic reasoning that aims at finding explanations for observed manifestations. This process underlies many applications, from car configu...
In this paper we present a method for learning a curve model for detection and segmentation by closely integrating a hierarchical curve representation using generative and discrim...
