We consider the hashing mechanism for constructing binary embeddings, that involves pseudo-random projections followed by nonlinear (sign function) mappings. The pseudo-random projection is described by a matrix, where not all entries are…
The classic way of computing a $k$-universal hash function is to use a random degree-$(k-1)$ polynomial over a prime field $\mathbb Z_p$. For a fast computation of the polynomial, the prime $p$ is often chosen as a Mersenne prime $p=2^b-1$.…

It's the age-old recurrence with a twist: sum the last two terms and if the result is composite, divide by its smallest prime divisor to get the next term (e.g., 0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 4, 3, 7, ...). These sequences exhibit pseudo-random…
Many approaches for verifying input-output properties of neural networks have been proposed recently. However, existing algorithms do not scale well to large networks. Recent work in the field of model compression studied binarized neural…
