GBGVD: growth-based geodesic Voronoi diagrams by Qi, Yunjia, Zong, Chen, Zhang, Yunxiao, Chen, Shuangmin, Xu, Minfeng, Ran, Lingqiang, Xu, Jian, Xin, Shiqing, He, Ying

“…Generally speaking, each ordinary bisector point of the GVD is determined by two adjacent generators while each branching point of the GVD is given by at least three generators. When there are sufficiently many generators, straight-line distance serves as an effective alternative of geodesic distance for computing GVDs. …”

Study on the combined sewage sludge pyrolysis and gasification process : mass and energy balance by Wang, Zhonghui, Chen, Dezhen, Song, Xueding, Zhao, Lei

“…For sewage sludge with a moisture content of 80 wt%, LHV(db) of sewage sludge should be higher than 18 MJ/kg and the pyrolysis temperature should be higher than 450 °C to maintain energy self-sufficiency when volatile from the pyrolysis process is the only energy supplier; when the LHV(db) was in the range of 14.65–18 MJ/kg, energy self-balance could be maintained in this combined process with fuel gas from char gasification as a supplementary fuel; auxiliary fuel was always needed if the LHV(db) was lower than 14.65 MJ/kg.…”

Budget feasible mechanism design : from prior-free to Bayesian by Bei, Xiaohui, Chen, Ning, Gravin, Nick, Lu, Pinyan

“…Both of our mechanisms improve the best known approximation ratio O(log 2 n). • For the Bayesian framework, we provide a constant approximation mechanism for all subadditive functions, using the above prior-free mechanism for XOS valuations as a subroutine. …”

A multi-view context-aware approach to Android malware detection and malicious code localization by Narayanan, Annamalai, Chandramohan, Mahinthan, Chen, Lihui, Liu, Yang

“…Subsequently, it employs Multiple Kernel Learning (MKL) to find a weighted combination of the views which yields the best detection accuracy. Besides multi-view learning, MKLDroid’s unique and salient trait is its ability to locate fine-grained malice code portions in dependency graphs (e.g., methods/classes). …”

Complexity of High-Dimensional Identity Testing with Coordinate Conditional Sampling by Blanca, Antonio, Chen, Zongchen, Stefankovic, Daniel, Vigoda, Eric

“…Given as input an explicit distribution , an > 0, and access to sampling oracle(s) for a hidden distribution , the goal in identity testing is to distinguish whether the two distributions and are identical or are at least -far apart. When there is only access to full samples from the hidden distribution , it is known that exponentially many samples (in the dimension) may be needed for identity testing, and hence previous works have studied identity testing with additional access to various “conditional” sampling oracles. …”
