Characterisations of Ideal Threshold Schemes [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2004
We characterise ideal threshold schemes from different approaches. Since the characteristic properties are independent to particular descriptions of threshold schemes all ideal threshold schemes can be examined by new points of view and new results on ...

On Cheating Immune Secret Sharing [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2004
The paper addresses the cheating prevention in secret sharing. We consider secret sharing with binary shares. The secret also is binary. This model allows us to use results and constructions from the well developed theory of cryptographically strong ...

Forecasting the Dialysis Burden in Japan: Validation‐Based Projections of Prevalence and Incidence Through 2050

open access: yesTherapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Japan has one of the highest dialysis prevalence rates worldwide and a shrinking, aging population. Whether dialysis burden has entered a sustained post‐peak phase or whether recent declines partly reflect pandemic‐related disruptions remains uncertain.

Association Between Individualized Education for Kidney Replacement Therapy Modality Selection and Peritoneal Dialysis Initiation: A Cross‐Sectional Study

open access: yesTherapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Peritoneal dialysis (PD) is an established home‐based kidney replacement therapy (KRT), but its uptake remains low in Japan. We evaluated whether individualized education in a dedicated outpatient clinic was associated with the initiation of PD.

Algorithmic polynomials [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the 50th Annual ACM SIGACT Symposium on Theory of Computing, 2018
The approximate degree of a Boolean function $f(x_{1},x_{2},\ldots,x_{n})$ is the minimum degree of a real polynomial that approximates $f$ pointwise within $1/3$. Upper bounds on approximate degree have a variety of applications in learning theory, differential privacy, and algorithm design in general.

Redistricting algorithms

open access: yes, 2022
Why not have a computer just draw a map? This is something you hear a lot when people talk about gerrymandering, and it's easy to think at first that this could solve redistricting altogether. But there are more than a couple problems with this idea. In this chapter, two computer scientists survey what's been done in algorithmic redistricting, discuss ...

Total Order Broadcast and Multicast Algorithms : Taxonomy and Survey [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Total order broadcast and multicast (also called atomic broadcast or atomic multicast) is an important problem in distributed systems, especially with respect to fault-tolerance.

Typical Sequences Revisited - Computing Width Parameters of Graphs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
In this work, we give a structural lemma on merges of typical sequences, a notion that was introduced in 1991 [Lagergren and Arnborg, Bodlaender and Kloks, both ICALP 1991] to obtain constructive linear time parameterized algorithms for treewidth and ...

Structural insights into an engineered feruloyl esterase with improved MHET degrading properties

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
A feruloyl esterase was engineered to mimic key features of MHETase, enhancing the degradation of PET oligomers. Structural and computational analysis reveal how a point mutation stabilizes the active site and reshapes the binding cleft, expading substrate scope.
