Abstract. A random iteration algorithm for graph-directed sets is defined and discussed. Similarly to the Barnsley-Elton’s theorem, it is shown that almost all sequences obtaine...
We extract a quantitative variant of uniqueness from the usual hypotheses of the implicit functions theorem. This leads not only to an a priori proof of continuity, but also to an ...
Abstract. We propose a new boosting algorithm based on a linear programming formulation. Our algorithm can take advantage of the sparsity of the solution of the underlying optimiza...
Using relation algebra, we generalize Aumann’s notion of a contact relation and that of a closure operation from powersets to general membership relations and their induced parti...
We show that, in a parametric model of polymorphism, the type ∀α.((α → α) → α) → (α → α → α) → α is isomorphic to closed n terms. That is, the type of closed ...
