Testing k-wise and almost k-wise independence
In this work, we consider the problems of testing whether a distribution over {0, 1}n is k-wise (resp. ( , k)-wise) independent using samples drawn from that distribution. For the...

Mirrored sampling in evolution strategies with weighted recombination
This paper introduces mirrored sampling into evolution strategies (ESs) with weighted multi-recombination. Two further heuristics are introduced: pairwise selection selects at mos...

Hardness Preserving Constructions of Pseudorandom Functions
We show a hardness-preserving construction of a PRF from any length doubling PRG which improves upon known constructions whenever we can put a non-trivial upper bound q on the numb...

Using hashing to solve the dictionary problem
We consider the dictionary problem in external memory and improve the update time of the wellknown buffer tree by roughly a logarithmic factor. For any λ ≥ max{lg lg n, logM/B(...

A flow model for joint action recognition and identity maintenance
We propose a framework that performs action recognition and identity maintenance of multiple targets simultaneously. Instead of first establishing tracks using an appearance mode...
