A robust structural damage detection method that can handle noisy frequency response function information is discussed. The inherent unstructured nature of damage detection problem...
Cache behavior modeling is an important part of modern optimizing compilers. In this paper we present a method to estimate the number of cache misses, at compile time, using a mac...
We give a simple combinatorial proof of the Chernoff-Hoeffding concentration bound [Che52, Hoe63], which says that the sum of independent {0, 1}-valued random variables is highly ...
Given a universe U of n elements and a weighted collection S of m subsets of U, the universal set cover problem is to a-priori map each element u ∈ U to a set S(u) ∈ S contain...
Background: Protein structure comparison is a central issue in structural bioinformatics. The standard dissimilarity measure for protein structures is the root mean square deviati...
