This paper reviews constructions of hash functions and MAC algorithms based on block ciphers. It discusses the main requirements for these cryptographic primitives, motivates these...
An Unobservable MDP (UMDP) is a POMDP in which there are no observations. An Only-Costly-Observable MDP (OCOMDP) is a POMDP which extends an UMDP by allowing a particular costly a...
We prove an upper bound on the convergence rate of Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) algorithms for the important special case when the state space can be aggregated into a smaller ...
Background: Mass spectrometry (MS) is an essential analytical tool in proteomics. Many existing algorithms for peptide detection are based on isotope template matching and usually...
Regular languages have proved useful for the symbolic state exploration of infinite state systems. They can be used to represent infinite sets of system configurations; the tran...
