Abstract. We present two universally composable and practical protocols by which a dealer can, verifiably and non-interactively, secret-share an integer among a set of players. Mo...
Abstract. We present a novel approach to structure learning for graphical models. By using nonparametric estimates to model clique densities in decomposable models, both discrete a...
Abstract. We extend the hyperdynamics method developed for lowdimensional energy-dominated systems, to simulate slow dynamics in more general atomistic systems. We show that a few ...
