Textbooks tell us that a birthday attack on a hash function h with range size r requires r1/2 trials (hash computations) to find a collision. But this is quite misleading, being t...
We illustrate with two simple examples how Interactive Evolutionary Computation (IEC) can be applied to Exploratory Data Analysis (EDA). IEC is particularly valuable in an EDA cont...
As computing platforms become more and more complex, the task of optimizing performance critical codes becomes more challenging. Recently, more attention has been focused on automa...
We propose an analysis for detecting procedures and goals that are deterministic (i.e. that produce at most one solution), or predicates whose clause tests are mutually exclusive (...
This paper describes an approach for playing expressive music, as it refers to a pianist's expressiveness, with a tapping-style interface. MIDI-formatted expressive performan...
