Inferences related to the second-order properties of functional data, as expressed by covariance structure, can become unreliable when the data are non-Gaussian or contain unusual observations. In the functional setting, it is often difficult to identify a ...
A k-ary semi-algebraic relation E on R^d is a subset of R^{kd}, the set of k-tuples of points in R^d, which is determined by a finite number of polynomial equations and inequalities in kd real variables. The description complexity of such a relation is at ...
Automated termination provers often use the following schema to prove that a program terminates: construct a relational abstraction of the program's transition relation and then show that the relational abstraction is well-founded. The focus of current too ...

A k-ary semi-algebraic relation E on R-d is a subset of R-kd, the set of k-tuples of points in R-d, which is determined by a finite number of polynomial inequalities in kd real variables. The description complexity of such a relation is at most t if d, k < ...
Single Molecule Localization Microscopy (SMLM) techniques, such as PhotoActivated Localization Microscopy (PALM) and STochastic Optical Reconstruction Microscopy(STORM), can get around the diffraction limited resolution of conventional fluorescent microsco ...
The semi-synchronous model is an important middle ground between the synchronous and the asynchronous models of distributed computing. In this model, processes can detect (timeout) when other processes fail. However, since detection is done by timing out, ...
Techniques such as verification condition generation, predicate abstraction, and expressive type systems reduce software verification to proving formulas in expressive logics. Programs and their specifications often make use of data structures such as sets ...
We prove a Hadwiger transversal-type result, characterizing convex position on a family of non-crossing convex bodies in the plane. This theorem suggests a definition for the order type of a family of convex bodies, generalizing the usual definition of ord ...
Although research and development (R&D) networks influence the innovation performance of their members, firms may not be fully aware of the scope of their network. In particular, due to cost reasons, they may not be fully informed of their “indirect ties”, ...
Our goal is to identify families of relations that are useful for reasoning about software. We describe such families using decidable quantifier-free classes of logical constraints with a rich set of operations. A key challenge is to define such classes of ...
