Razborov and Rudich identified an imposing barrier that stands in the way of progress toward the goal of proving superpolynomial lower bounds on circuit size. Their work on "n...
Recent progress on nanodevices, such as carbon nanotubes and nanowires, points to promising directions for future circuit design. However, nanofabrication techniques are not yet m...
One of the main problems in applying evolutionary optimisation methods is the choice of operators and parameter values. This paper propose a competitive evolution method, in which ...
Group elevator scheduling has long been recognized as an important problem for building transportation efficiency, since unsatisfactory elevator service is one of the major complai...
There have been important recent advances in object recognition through the matching of invariant local image features. However, the existing approaches are based on matching to i...
