Computation in Dynamically Bounded Asymmetric Systems

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors analyze the behavior of asymmetrical connected networks of linear threshold neurons, whose positive response is unbounded, and show that, for a wide range of parameters, this asymmetry brings interesting and computationally useful dynamical properties.

Root refinement for real polynomials using quadratic interval refinement

TL;DR: A variant of QIR is formulated, denoted AQIR ("Approximate QIR"), that considers only approximations of the polynomial coefficients and chooses a suitable working precision adaptively, and achieves near-optimal bounds that essentially match the best known theoretical bounds on root approximation as obtained by very sophisticated algorithms.

The complexity of theorem-proving procedures

TL;DR: It is shown that any recognition problem solved by a polynomial time-bounded nondeterministic Turing machine can be “reduced” to the problem of determining whether a given propositional formula is a tautology.
