Daniel Hsu and his student Arushi Gupta show it is possible to build discrete choice models by estimating parameters from … Continue reading In discrete choice modeling, estimating parameters from two or three—not all—options
Feiner’s Computer Graphics and User Interfaces Lab, among the first participating in Verizon’s 5G incubator, aims to enable therapists to work on motor rehabilitation through 5G with remote patients who simultaneously manipulate the same objects.
In a new approach to security, Sethumadhavan will work with a team of researchers, many from the Data Science Institute, to build security mechanisms into the well-defined interface between hardware and software.
In a paper presented this week at the Web Conference, authors Ana-Andreea Stoica, Christopher Riederer, and Augustin Chaintreau identify an algorithmic glass ceiling in social networks after analyzing effects of gender, homophily, and growth dynamics.
By imperceptibly changing, or perturbing, the shapes of fonts, Columbia researchers have invented a way to embed hidden information in ordinary … Continue reading FontCode: Hiding information in plain text, unobtrusively and across file types
“An Analysis of the Skype Peer-to-Peer Internet Telephony Protocol” (2006) was first paper to use traffic analysis to reverse-engineer an intentionally obscured network application. The other coauthor, Salman Baset, was Schulzrinne’s student at the time.
