Nearest neighbor forecasting models are attractive with their simplicity and the ability to predict complex nonlinear behavior. They rely on the assumption that observations simila...
The problem of characterizing lower bounds on data-rates needed for closed loop stability has been solved in a variety of settings. However, the available results lead to coding s...
We present an automatic approach to tree annotation in which basic nonterminal symbols are alternately split and merged to maximize the likelihood of a training treebank. Starting...

Finding simple, non-recursive, base noun phrases is an important subtask for many natural language processing applications. While previous empirical methods for base NP identifica...
Evolution Strategies (ES) for black-box optimization of a function f : Rn → R are investigated. Namely, we consider the cumulative step-size adaptation (CSA) for the variance of...
