Finding complex concurrency bugs in large multi-threaded applications
Parallel software is increasingly necessary to take advantage of multi-core architectures, but it is also prone to concurrency bugs which are particularly hard to avoid, find, an...

Quantum Algorithms for Element Distinctness
We present several applications of quantum amplitude amplification to finding claws and collisions in ordered or unordered functions. Our algorithms generalize those of Brassard...

Gradient-based boosting for statistical relational learning: The relational dependency network case
Dependency networks approximate a joint probability distribution over multiple random variables as a product of conditional distributions. Relational Dependency Networks (RDNs) are...

Non-commutative circuits and the sum-of-squares problem
We initiate a direction for proving lower bounds on the size of non-commutative arithmetic circuits. This direction is based on a connection between lower bounds on the size of no...

NP-completeness and FPT Results for Rectilinear Covering Problems
Abstract: This paper discusses three rectilinear (that is, axis-parallel) covering problems in d dimensions and their variants. The first problem is the Rectilinear Line Cover whe...
