May 10, 2011, 10am @ SBA: Designing Truthful Mechanisms Angelina Vidali In this talk I will present my work on many different aspects of one of the most fundamental problems in algorithmic game theory (and more specifically algorithmic mechanism design), the problem of scheduling unrelated machines to… Read More
Sensitivity Based Generalization Error for Single and Multiple Classifier Systems with Applications Abstract Generalization error model provides a theoretical support for a classifier’s performance in terms of prediction accuracy. However, existing models give very loose error bounds. This explains why classification systems generally rely on experimental validation for their claims… Read More
Our paper Dark Clouds on the Horizon: Using Cloud Storage as Attack Vector and Online Slack Space was accepted. Unfortunately we cannot provide a preprint because the affected vendor(s) still need the time to fix some things…… Read More
Rails 3.0.5 doesn’t validate the input for the X-Forwarded-For field in the header sent by clients with a class C remote-addr. (see: TRUSTED_PROXIES). (Security Focus, more details…)
