1-dimensional splines as building blocks for improving accuracy of risk outcomes models
Transformation of both the response variable and the predictors is commonly used in fitting regression models. However, these transformation methods do not always provide the maxi...

A Simple Two-Module Problem to Exemplify Building-Block Assembly Under Crossover
Theoretically and empirically it is clear that a genetic algorithm with crossover will outperform a genetic algorithm without crossover in some fitness landscapes, and vice versa i...

Designing Self-Assembly for 2-Dimensional Building Blocks
In this paper we present a genetic algorithm-based approach towards designing self-assembling objects comprised of square smart blocks. Each edge of each block can have one of thr...

Finding Building Blocks through Eigenstructure Adaptation
A fundamental aspect of many evolutionary approaches to synthesis of complex systems is the need to compose atomic elements into useful higher-level building blocks. However, the ...

Improved Garbled Circuit Building Blocks and Applications to Auctions and Computing Minima
Abstract. We consider generic Garbled Circuit (GC)-based techniques for Secure Function Evaluation (SFE) in the semi-honest model. We describe efficient GC constructions for additi...
