In this paper, we consider the problem of planning and learning in the infinite-horizon discounted-reward Markov decision problems. We propose a novel iterative direct policysearc...
We consider the ‘one-shot frame synchronization problem’ where a decoder wants to locate a sync pattern at the output of a channel on the basis of sequential observations. We ...

—A novel counter architecture, called Counter Braids, has recently been proposed for accurate per-flow measurement on high-speed links. Inspired by sparse random graph codes, Co...
We show an efficient secure two-party protocol, based on Yao's construction, which provides security against malicious adversaries. Yao's original protocol is only secur...
This paper shows that a simple two-stage approach to handle non-local dependencies in Named Entity Recognition (NER) can outperform existing approaches that handle non-local depen...
