Matrix computation algorithms often exhibit dependencies between neighboring elements inside loop nests such that the frontier between computed elements and those to be computed w...
We study runtime distributions of subsumption testing. On graph data randomly sampled from two different generative models we observe a gradual growth of the tails of the distribut...
We describe an annealing procedure that computes the normalized N-cut of a weighted graph G. The first phase transition computes the solution of the approximate normalized 2-cut p...
Abstract Model Checking is a well-known and fully automatic technique for checking software properties, usually given as temporal logic formulas on the program variables. Most of m...
One of the major tasks of evolutionary biology is the reconstruction of phylogenetic trees from molecular data. The evolutionary model is given by a Markov chain on the true evolu...
