The study of seeded randomness extractors is a major line of research in theoretical computer science. The goal is to construct deterministic algorithms which can take a weak random source x with min-entropy k and a uniformly random seed Y of length d, and ...
Max-stable processes play an important role as models for spatial extreme events. Their complex structure as the pointwise maximum over an infinite number of random functions makes their simulation difficult. Algorithms based on finite approximations are o ...
Dynamic optimization problems affected by uncertainty are ubiquitous in many application domains. Decision makers typically model the uncertainty through random variables governed by a probability distribution. If the distribution is precisely known, then ...
We derive algorithms for efficient secure numerical and logical operations in the semi-honest model ensuring statistical or perfect security for secure multi-party computation (MPC). To derive our algorithms for trigonometric functions, we use basic mathem ...
The problem of effect polymorphism is a major obstacle to wide adoption of effect systems in the programming community. The absence of effect systems reduces compiler optimization opportunities and disables effect constraints on APIs in parallel and distri ...
Model-structure identification is important for the optimization and design of biokinetic processes. Standard Monod and Tessier functions are often used by default to describe bacterial growth with respect to a substrate, leading to significant optimizatio ...
We study bias arising as a result of nonlinear transformations of random variables in random or mixed effects models and its effect on inference in group-level studies or in meta-analysis. The findings are illustrated on the example of overdispersed binomi ...
In this work we consider the problem of approximating the statistics of a given Quantity of Interest (QoI) that depends on the solution of a linear elliptic PDE defined over a random domain parameterized by N random variables. The elliptic problem is remap ...
The present invention is notably directed to a computer-implemented method for image reconstruction. The method comprises: accessing elements that respectively correspond to measurement values, which can be respectively mapped to measurement nodes; and per ...
Ext-int. one affine functions are functions affine in the direction of one-divisible exterior forms with respect to the exterior product in one variable and with respect to the interior product in the other. The purpose of this article is to prove a charac ...
