The problems of uniformly sampling and approximately counting contingency tables have been widely studied, but efficient solutions are only known in special cases. One appealing ap...
We introduce the First Fit Matching Periods algorithm for rate-monotonic multiprocessor scheduling of periodic tasks with implicit deadlines and show that it yields asymptotically...
Abstract. We describe a system for autonomous learning of visual object representations and their grasp affordances on a robot-vision system. It segments objects by grasping and mo...

A nonce is a cryptographic input value which must never repeat within a given context. Nonces are important for the security of many cryptographic building blocks, such as stream c...
In this paper, we propose a probabilistic model to study the interaction of bidder and seller agents in sequential automated auctions. We consider a designated “special bidder”...
