Theory of Computation offers a rigorous mathematical framework that underpins our understanding of what can be computed and how efficiently these computations may be performed. It encompasses ...

Fundamental concepts in the design of computer programs, emphasizing the crucial role of abstraction. The goal of the course is to give students insight into the difference between programming and ...

This course gives an introduction to the mathematical foundations of computation. The course will look at Turing machines, universal computation, the Church-Turing thesis, the halting problem and ...

This article demonstrates a fast and practical procedure for the maximum likelihood estimation of models with spatial interaction on a lattice, such as Gaussian Markov random fields (conditional ...

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract We discuss the implementation, development and performance of methods of stochastic computation in Gaussian graphical models. We view these ...

Turing machines are widely believed to be universal, in the sense that any computation done by any system can also be done by a Turing machine. In a new article, researchers present their work ...
