In this paper we prove a theorem that gives an (almost) tight upper bound on the sensitivity of a multiple-output Boolean function in terms of the sensitivity of its coordinates an...
We study the problem of computing the similarity between two piecewise-linear bivariate functions defined over a common domain, where the surfaces they define in 3D—polyhedral...

Hash functions play the most important role in various cryptologic applications, ranging from data integrity checking to digital signatures. Our goal is to introduce a new hash fu...
Background: The ability to design thermostable proteins is theoretically important and practically useful. Robust and accurate algorithms, however, remain elusive. One critical pr...
Assume that each object in a database has m grades, or scores, one for each of m attributes. For example, an object can have a color grade, that tells how red it is, and a shape g...
