Natural complexity, computational complexity and depth [PDF]

open access: yesChaos: An Interdisciplinary Journal of Nonlinear Science, 2011
Depth is a complexity measure for natural systems of the kind studied in statistical physics and is defined in terms of computational complexity. Depth quantifies the length of the shortest parallel computation required to construct a typical system state or history starting from simple initial conditions.

Computational Oncology in the Multi-Omics Era: State of the Art

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2020
Cancer is the quintessential complex disease. As technologies evolve faster each day, we are able to quantify the different layers of biological elements that contribute to the emergence and development of malignancies.

Performance of Some Estimators of Relative Variability

open access: yesFrontiers in Applied Mathematics and Statistics, 2019
The classic coefficient of variation (CV) is the ratio of the standard deviation to the mean and can be used to compare normally distributed data with respect to their variability, this measure has been widely used in many fields. In the Social Sciences,

Computational Complexity and Phase Transitions

open access: yes, 2000
Phase transitions in combinatorial problems have recently been shown to be useful in locating "hard" instances of combinatorial problems. The connection between computational complexity and the existence of phase transitions has been addressed in ...

The Computational Complexity of Propositional Cirquent Calculus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Introduced in 2006 by Japaridze, cirquent calculus is a refinement of sequent calculus. The advent of cirquent calculus arose from the need for a deductive system with a more explicit ability to reason about resources.

Efficient inner product arguments and their applications in range proofs

open access: yesIET Information Security, 2023
Inner product arguments allow a prover to prove that the inner product of two committed vectors equals a public scalar. They are used to reduce the complexity of many cryptographic primitives, such as range proofs.

Depth, Highness and DNR degrees [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2017
We study Bennett deep sequences in the context of recursion theory; in particular we investigate the notions of O(1)-deepK, O(1)-deepC , order-deep K and order-deep C sequences. Our main results are that Martin-Loef random sets are not order-deepC , that

An overview on polynomial approximation of NP-hard problems [PDF]

open access: yesYugoslav Journal of Operations Research, 2009
The fact that polynomial time algorithm is very unlikely to be devised for an optimal solving of the NP-hard problems strongly motivates both the researchers and the practitioners to try to solve such problems heuristically, by making a trade-off between
