Abstract: We give an explicit construction of a pseudorandom generator against lowdegree polynomials over finite fields. Pseudorandom generators against linear polynomials, known...
Abstract. We present the first complete problem for SZK, the class of promise problems possessing statistical zero-knowledge proofs (against an honest verifier). The problem, calle...
We analyze the addition of a simple local improvement step to various known randomized approximation algorithms. Let ' 0:87856 denote the best approximation ratio currently k...
A simple extension of standard neural network models is introduced which provides a model for neural computations that involve both firing rates and firing correlations. Such an ex...
This article initiates a rigorous theoretical analysis of the computational power of circuits that employ modules for computing winner-take-all. Computational models that involve ...
