In this paper we present proofs for the new biases in RC4 which were experimentally found and listed out (without theoretical justifi- cations and proofs) in a paper by Vanhoef et al. in USENIX 2015. Their purpose was to exploit the vulnerabilities of RC4 ...
From the moment we wake up in the morning to the day's ebb when we settle in to sleep, we are bound to the task of decision-making. Some of these decisions barely register in our consciousness, if at all, while others, less shy, take a more prominent place ...
Coordinate descent methods usually minimize a cost function by updating a random decision variable (corresponding to one coordinate) at a time. Ideally, we would update the decision variable that yields the largest decrease in the cost function. However, f ...
We consider online convex optimizations in the bandit setting. The decision maker does not know the time- varying cost functions, or their gradients. At each time step, she observes the value of the cost function for her chosen action. The objective is to ...

We consider stochastic programs where the distribution of the uncertain parameters is only observable through a finite training dataset. Using the Wasserstein metric, we construct a ball in the space of (multivariate and non-discrete) probability distribut ...
In empirical risk optimization, it has been observed that stochastic gradient implementations that rely on random reshuffling of the data achieve better performance than implementations that rely on sampling the data uniformly. Recent works have pursued ju ...
Neighborhood form and building facade design are key drivers of indoor daylight performance. Architectural design at the neighborhood scale starts with massing scheme proposals and other design specifications including façade design are typically enriched ...
News entities must select and filter the coverage they broadcast through their respective channels since the set of world events is too large to be treated exhaustively. The subjective nature of this filtering induces biases due to, among other things, res ...
When humans or animals perform an action that led to a desired outcome, they show a tendency to repeat it. The mechanisms underlying learning from past experience and adapting future behavior are still not fully understood. In this thesis, I study how huma ...
