Abstract. In this paper we study a reducibility that has been introduced by Klaus Weihrauch or, more precisely, a natural extension of this reducibility for multi-valued functions ...
We study two-layer belief networks of binary random variables in which the conditional probabilities Pr childjparents depend monotonically on weighted sums of the parents. In larg...
Abstract. One of the most basic requirements concerning Boolean functions used in cryptosystems is that they must have high algebraic degrees. This simple criterion is not always w...
We study a dissimilarity measure between shapes, expressed by the natural pseudodistance between size pairs, where a shape is viewed as a topological space endowed with a real-val...
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...
