Abstract. One of the main open problems in secret sharing is the characterization of the access structures of ideal secret sharing schemes. As a consequence of the results by Brick...
We define reactive simulatability for general asynchronous systems. Roughly, simulatability means that a real system implements an ideal system (specification) in a way that pre...
We propose several models based on discrete-time Markov chains for the analysis of Distributed Hash Tables (DHTs). Specifically, we examine the Pastry routing protocol, as well a...

Recently researchers have introduced methods to develop reusable knowledge in reinforcement learning (RL). In this paper, we define simple principles to combine skills in reinforce...
We present a face verification system using Parallel Gabor Principal Component Analysis (PGPCA) and fusion of Support Vector Machines (SVM) scores. The algorithm has been tested on...
