Previous work investigating the performance of genetic algorithms (GAs) has attempted to develop a set of fitness landscapes, called “Royal Roads” functions, which should be id...
Abstract. We revisit the online unit clustering problem in one dimension which we recently introduced at WAOA'06: given a sequence of n points on the line, the objective is to...
Abstract The transformation protocol can allow two players to share an unconditionally secure secret key using a random deal of cards. A sufficient condition on the number of cards...
The use of good random numbers is essential to the integrity of many mission-critical systems. However, when such systems are replicated for Byzantine fault tolerance, a serious i...
As vision algorithms mature with increasing inspiration from the learning community, statistically independent pseudo random number generation (PRNG) becomes increasingly importan...
