An algorithm independent metric is introduced that measures the dispersion of a uniform random sample drawn from the top ranked percentiles of the search space. A low dispersion f...
Background: Protein-protein interactions are fundamental for the majority of cellular processes and their study is of enormous biotechnological and therapeutic interest. In recent...
Abstract. We study the problem of determining the complexity of optimal comparison-based in-place sorting when the key length, k, is not a constant. We present the first algorithm...
We give new constructions of randomness extractors and lossless condensers that are optimal to within constant factors in both the seed length and the output length. For extractor...

Abstract. We are interested in efficient algorithms for generating random samples from geometric objects such as Riemannian manifolds. As a step in this direction, we consider the ...
