Of the many tuning parameters available in a database management system (DBMS), one of the most crucial to performance is the buffer pool size. Choosing an appropriate size, howev...
We present a statistical method that PAC learns the class of stochastic perceptrons with arbitrary monotonic activation function and weights wi {-1, 0, +1} when the probability d...
We study the zeros of two families of polynomials related to rook theory and matchings in graphs. One of these families is based on the cover polynomial of a digraph introduced by ...
Abstract—Computing maximum-likelihood bounds on the performance of systems involving partial response (PR) channels, with or without an error correcting code present, is rather c...
This paper addresses a constrained two-terminal reliability measure referred to as Distance Reliability (DR) between the source node u and the destination node I with the shortest...
