Abstract. Alternating least squares (ALS) is a powerful matrix factorization (MF) algorithm for both implicit and explicit feedback based recommender systems. We show that by using...
This article describes how array predicates were used to reduce the computational complexity of four APL primitive functions when one of their arguments is a permutation vector. T...
Error-correcting codes and matroids have been widely used in the study of ordinary secret sharing schemes. In this paper, the connections between codes, matroids, and a special cla...

We show how to compute cartograms with worst-case optimal polygonal complexity. Specifically we study rectilinear duals which are side-contact representations of a planar graph G ...

We first study the problem of doing Verifiable Secret Sharing (VSS) information theoretically secure for a general access structure. We do it in the model where private channels b...
