- Vulnerabilities related to weak passwords are a pressing global economic and security issue. We report a novel, simple, and effective approach to address the weak password probl...
We propose Shotgun, a parallel coordinate descent algorithm for minimizing L1regularized losses. Though coordinate descent seems inherently sequential, we prove convergence bounds...

Abstract. We consider the setting of ontological database access, where an Abox is given in form of a relational database D and where a Boolean conjunctive query q has to be evalua...
