ParsCit: an Open-source CRF Reference String Parsing Package
We describe ParsCit, a freely available, open-source implementation of a reference string parsing package. At the core of ParsCit is a trained conditional random field (CRF) model...

Extracting All the Randomness from a Weakly Random Source
In this paper, we give two explicit constructions of extractors, both of which work for a source of any min-entropy on strings of length n. The rst extracts any constant fraction ...

Randomized Fast Design of Short DNA Words
We consider the problem of efficiently designing sets (codes) of equal-length DNA strings (words) that satisfy certain combinatorial constraints. This problem has numerous motivati...

Sharing Random Bits with No Process Coordination
We present a method by which any polynomial-time randomized distributed algorithm is transformed in such way that each participating process needs only polylog local random bits a...
