New Results on Quantum Property Testing
We present several new examples of speed-ups obtainable by quantum algorithms in the context of property testing. First, motivated by sampling algorithms, we consider probability d...

Nonparametric Independence Tests: Space Partitioning and Kernel Approaches
Abstract. Three simple and explicit procedures for testing the independence of two multi-dimensional random variables are described. Two of the associated test statistics (L1, log-...

An Evolution Strategy Using a Continuous Version of the Gray-Code Neighbourhood Distribution
Abstract. We derive a continuous probability distribution which generates neighbours of a point in an interval in a similar way to the bitwise mutation of a Gray code binary string...

Testing monotone high-dimensional distributions
A monotone distribution P over a (partially) ordered domain assigns higher probability to y than to x if y x in the order. We study several natural problems concerning testing pr...
