Local coordinate coding has recently been introduced to learning visual feature dictionary and achieved top level performance for object recognition. However, the computational co...
This paper explores a topological perspective of planning in the presence of uncertainty, focusing on tasks specified by goal states in discrete spaces. The paper introduces stra...
A Private Information Retrieval (PIR) protocol allows a database user, or client, to obtain information from a data- base in a manner that prevents the database from knowing which...
A central line of research in the area of PCPs is devoted to constructing short PCPs. In this paper, we show that if we allow an additional interactive verification phase, with v...
Abstract—Channel shortening filters have been used in acoustics to reduce reverberation, in error control decoding to reduce complexity, and in communication systems to reduce i...
