Guarding Scenes against Invasive Hypercubes

In recent years realistic input models for geometric algorithms have been studied. The most important models introduced are fatness, low density, unclutteredness, and small simple-cover complexity. These models form a strict hierarchy. Unfortunately, small simple-cover complexity is often too general to enable efficient algorithms. In this paper we introduce a new model based on guarding sets. ...

Guarding against Adversarial Domain Shifts

When training a deep neural network for supervised image classification, one can broadly distinguish between two types of latent features of images that will drive the classification: (i) ‘immutable’ or ‘core’ features that are really inherent to the object in question and do not change substantially from one instance of the object to another and (ii) ‘mutable’ or ‘style’ features such as posit...

Guarding paediatricians against allegations of assault.

Guarding against the most dangerous emerging pathogens.

Control of emerging infectious diseases will be difficult because of the large number of disease-causing organisms that are emerging or could emerge and the great diversity of geographic areas in which emergence can occur. The modern view of the evolution of pathogen virulence--specifically its focus on the tradeoff between costs and benefits to the pathogen from increased host exploitation--al...

Guarding against Collateral Damage during Chromatin Transactions

Signal amplifications are vital for chromatin function, yet they also bear the risk of transforming into unrestrained, self-escalating, and potentially harmful responses. Examples of inbuilt limitations are emerging, revealing how chromatin transactions are confined within physiological boundaries.
