Object proposals are an ensemble of bounding boxes with high potential to contain objects. In order to determine a small set of proposals with a high recall, a common scheme is extracting multiple features followed by a ranking algorithm…

This paper introduces OPTIMUM-DERAM, a highly consistent, scalable, secure, and decentralized shared memory solution. Traditional distributed shared memory implementations offer multi-object support by multi-threading a single object memory…

Eventually linearizable objects are novel shared memory programming constructs introduced as an analogy to eventual consistency in message-passing systems. However, their behaviors in shared memory systems are so mysterious that very little…

The SWMR atomic register is a fundamental building block in shared memory distributed systems and implementing it from SWSR atomic registers is an important problem. While this problem has been solved in crash-prone systems, it has received…

Multiple-writer/multiple-reader (MWMR) atomic register implementations provide precise consistency guarantees, in the asynchronous, crash-prone, message passing environment. Fast MWMR atomic register implementations were first introduced in…

The future of main memory appears to lie in the direction of new non-volatile memory technologies that provide strong capacity-to-performance ratios, but have write operations that are much more expensive than reads in terms of energy,…

In a seminal work, Golab et al. showed that a randomized algorithm that works with atomic objects may lose some of its properties if we replace the atomic objects that it uses with linearizable objects. It was not known whether the…

A powerful tool for designing complex concurrent programs is through composition with object implementations from lower-level primitives. Strongly-linearizable implementations allow to preserve hyper-properties, e.g., probabilistic…

Atomic shared objects, whose operations take place instantaneously, are a powerful abstraction for designing complex concurrent programs. Since they are not always available, they are typically substituted with software implementations. A…

A content-addressable-memory compares an input search word against all rows of stored words in an array in a highly parallel manner. While supplying a very powerful functionality for many applications in pattern matching and search, it…

This paper studies the consistency of the kernel-based neural ranking model K-NRM, a recent state-of-the-art neural IR model, which is important for reproducible research and deployment in the industry. We find that K-NRM has low variance…

We study two fundamental problems of distributed computing, consensus and approximate agreement, through a novel approach for proving lower bounds and impossibility results, that we call the asynchronous speedup theorem. For a given…

This study combines two different learning paradigms, k-nearest neighbor (k-NN) rule, as memory-based learning paradigm and relevance vector machines (RVM), as statistical learning paradigm. This combination is performed in kernel space and…

This article addresses election in fully anonymous systems made up of $n$ asynchronous processes that communicate through atomic read-write registers or atomic read-modify-write registers. Given an integer $d\in\{1,\dots, n-1\}$, two…

We introduce a logical language for reasoning about quantized aggregate-combine graph neural networks with global readout (ACR-GNNs). We provide a logical characterization and use it to prove that verification tasks for quantized GNNs with…

Successful completion of reasoning task requires the agent to have relevant prior knowledge or some given context of the world dynamics. Usually, the information provided to the system for a reasoning task is just the query or some…

Reference is a crucial property of language that allows us to connect linguistic expressions to the world. Modeling it requires handling both continuous and discrete aspects of meaning. Data-driven models excel at the former, but struggle…

Preference aggregation is a fundamental problem in voting theory, in which public input rankings of a set of alternatives (called preferences) must be aggregated into a single preference that satisfies certain soundness properties. The…

Natural memories are associative, declarative and distributed. Symbolic computing memories resemble natural memories in their declarative character, and information can be stored and recovered explicitly; however, they lack the associative…

Auditability allows to track all the read operations performed on a register. It abstracts the need of data owners to control access to their data, tracking who read which information. This work considers possible formalizations of auditing…
