It is well known that, in theory, the general secure multiparty computation problem is solvable using circuit evaluation protocols. However, the communication complexity of the resulting protocols depend on the size of the circuit that expresses the functionality to be computed and hence can be impractical. Hence special solutions are needed for specific problems for efficiency reasons. The poi...

The paper proposes a two-phase view-invariant multiscale gait recognition method (VI-MGR) which is robust to variation in clothing and presence of a carried item. In phase 1, VI-MGR uses the entropy of the limb region of a gait energy image (GEI) to determine the matching gallery view of the probe using 2-dimensional principal component analysis and Euclidean distance classifier. In phase 2, th...

Methods to compute 1–factorizations of a complete graphs of even order are presented. For complete graphs where the number of vertices is a power of 2, we propose several new methods to construct 1–factorizations. Our methods are different from methods that make use of algebraic concepts such as Steiner triple systems, starters and all other existing methods. We also show that certain complete ...

A two-phase DLSM model is proposed to model transverse isotropic materials, in which the layer structure of the anisotropic materials is explicitly represented. Equations are derived to obtain elastic parameters of the two phase model from the elastic modules in parallel to the bedding planes and that in normal direction of the bedding planes. Then, the mechanical properties of the two-phase DL...

ONLINE BIN STRETCHING is a semi-online variant of bin packing in which the algorithm has to use the same number of bins as an optimal packing, but is allowed to slightly overpack the bins. The goal is to minimize the amount of overpacking, i.e., the maximum size packed into any bin. We give an algorithm for ONLINE BIN STRETCHING with a stretching factor of 1.5 for any number of bins. We build o...

The paper discusses State Space Blind Source Recovery (BSR) for minimum phase and non-minimum phase mixtures of gaussian and non-gaussian distributions. The State Space Natural Gradient approach results in compact iterative update laws for BSR. Two separate state space algorithms for minimum phase and non-minimum phase mixing environments are presented. The advantages and disadvantages of both ...

the aim of this paper is to show the importance of analytic hyperbolic geometry introduced in [9]. in [1], ungar and chen showed that the algebra of the group sl(2,c) naturally leads to the notion of gyrogroups and gyrovector spaces for dealing with the lorentz group and its underlying hyperbolic geometry. they defined the chen addition and then chen model of hyperbolic geometry. in this paper,...

Simple, two-pahse algorithms are devised for finding the maxima of multidimensional point samples, one of the very first problems studied in computational geometry. The algorithms are easily coded and modified for practical needs. The expected complexity of some measures related to the performance of the algorithms is analyzed. We also compare the efficiency of the algorithms with a few major o...

This article investigates the pulsating flow of a compressible two-phase bubble of viscous fluid contained in an elastic orthotropicle direct axis tube. In this work, one-dimensional linear equations have been used. It is assumed that the tube is rigidly attached to the certain environment. In the case of finite length the pressure is applied at the end of its faces. In the limited process, rel...
