Abstract. In the 2nd Annual FOCS (1961), Chao-Kong Chow proved that every Boolean threshold function is uniquely determined by its degree-0 and degree-1 Fourier coefficients. These...
Quantiles, also known as value-at-risk in financial applications, are important measures of random performance. Quantile sensitivities provide information on how changes in the i...
In traditional optimistic distributed simulation protocols, a logical process(LP) receiving a straggler rolls back and sends out anti-messages. Receiver of an anti-message may als...
We propose a new model for image denoising which is a hybrid of the total variation model and the Laplacian mean-curvature model. An efficient numerical procedure to compute the h...
Traditional methods of dealing with variability in simulation input data are mainly stochastic. This is most often the best method to use if the factors affecting the variation or...
