Local minima and plateaus pose a serious problem in learning of neural networks. We investigate the hierarchical geometric structure of the parameter space of three-layer perceptr...
Abstract. We propose a two-step approach for the analysis of functional magnetic resonance images, in the context of natural stimuli. In the first step, elements of functional bra...

The use of Support Vector Machines (SVMs) to represent the performance space of analog circuits is explored. In abstract terms, an analog circuit maps a set of input design parame...

This paper presents an area pad layout method to e ciently reduce the space required for interconnection pads and pad drivers. Unlike peripheral pads, area pads use only the top m...
This paper presents an exact approach of calculating float for each activity in linear schedules. It is based on singularity functions, which have been used previously to determin...
