Given the choice, users produce passwords reflecting common strategies and patterns that ease recall but offer uncertain and often weak security. System-assigned passwords provide measurable security but suffer from poor memorability. To…
Reduced rank regression (RRR) is a fundamental tool for modeling multiple responses through low-dimensional latent structures, offering both interpretability and strong predictive performance in high-dimensional settings. Classical RRR…
The notion of replicable algorithms was introduced in Impagliazzo et al. [STOC '22] to describe randomized algorithms that are stable under the resampling of their inputs. More precisely, a replicable algorithm gives the same output with…
