Let ES(n) denote the minimum natural number such that every set of ES(n) points in general position in the plane contains n points in convex position. In 1935, ErdAs and Szekeres proved that ES. In 1961, they obtained the lower bound , which they conjectur ...
Room acoustics refers to the audio capture of an enclosed room. It can be seen as its color and fully describes the characteristics of the room, including the shape, size or the population. The goal of the project is to set up a database of Room impulse re ...
The present invention relates to a method for assessing the quality, utility and applicability of a cell according to the said method comprising the following steps: a) analyzing the expression of the TEs of said cell in order to set up an expression profi ...
We define the bisector energy E(P) of a set P in R-2 to be the number of quadruples (a, b, c, d) is an element of P-4 such that a, b determine the same perpendicular bisector as c, d. Equivalently, E(P) is the number of isosceles trapezoids determined by P ...
We study the design of sampling trajectories for stable sampling and the reconstruction of bandlimited spatial fields using mobile sensors. The spectrum is assumed to be a symmetric convex set. As a performance metric we use the path density of the set of ...
Let P be a set of n > d points in for d >= 2. It was conjectured by Zvi Schur that the maximum number of (d-1)-dimensional regular simplices of edge length diam(P), whose every vertex belongs to P, is n. We prove this statement under the condition that any ...
Large databases of scanned newspapers open new avenues for studying linguistic evolution. By studying a two-billion-word corpus corresponding to 200 years of newspapers, we compare several methods in order to assess how fast language is changing. After cri ...
Given a finite n-element set X, a family of subsets F subset of 2(X) is said to separate X if any two elements of X are separated by at least one member of F. It is shown that if vertical bar F vertical bar > 2(n-1), then one can select vertical bar log n ...
Crowdsourcing has been widely established as a means to enable human computation at large scale, in particular for tasks that require manual labelling of large sets of data items. Answers obtained from heterogeneous crowd workers are aggregated to obtain a ...
Progressive algorithms are algorithms that, on the way to computing a complete solution to the problem at hand, output intermediate solutions that approximate the complete solution increasingly well. We present a framework for analyzing such algorithms, an ...
