Matrix-Variate Dirichlet Process Mixture Models
We are concerned with a multivariate response regression problem where the interest is in considering correlations both across response variates and across response samples. In th...

Situated Control Rules
In this work we extend the work of Dean, Kaelbling, Kirman and Nicholson on planning under time constraints in stochastic domains to handle more complicated scheduling problems. I...

Sampling from the exponential distribution using independent Bernoulli variates
The exponential distribution is a key distribution in many event-driven Monte-Carlo simulations, where it is used to model the time between random events in the system. This paper...

Dynamic Facility Location with Stochastic Demands
Abstract. In this paper, a Stochastic Dynamic Facility Location Problem (SDFLP) is formulated. In the first part, an exact solution method based on stochastic dynamic programming ...

The double CFTP method
We consider the problem of the exact simulation of random variables Z that satisfy the distributional identity Z L = V Y + (1 − V )Z, where V ∈ [0, 1] and Y are independent, an...
