We consider the family of 2n-to-n-bit compression functions that are solely based on at most three permutation executions and on XOR-operators, and analyze its collision and preima...
— We present a general approach for the hierarchical segmentation and labeling of document layout structures. This approach models document layout as a grammar and performs a glo...
In the past several years, significant progress has been made in finding optimal solutions to combinatorial problems. In particular, random instances of both Rubik's Cube, wi...
In this paper, we show how adaptive prototype optimization can be used to improve the performance of function approximation based on Kanerva Coding when solving largescale instanc...
The rich dependency structure found in the columns of real-world relational databases can be exploited to great advantage, but can also cause query optimizers--which usually assum...
