Maximum likelihood estimators are often of limited practical use due to the intensive computation they require. We propose a family of alternative estimators that maximize a stoch...
We study the following question, communicated to us by Mikl´os Ajtai: Can all explicit (e.g., polynomial time computable) functions f : ({0, 1}w )3 → {0, 1}w be computed by word...

We consider the deterministic and the randomized decision tree complexities for Boolean functions, denoted DC(f) and RC(f), respectively. A major open problem is how small RC(f) ca...
Abstract. It is shown that high-order feedforward neural nets of constant depth with piecewisepolynomial activation functions and arbitrary real weights can be simulated for Boolea...
— We present a novel Weighted Barrier Function (WBF) method of efficiently computing optimal grasping force distributions for multifingered hands. Second-order conic friction c...
