In the multi-armed bandit (MAB) problem there are k distributions associated with the rewards of playing each of k strategies (slot machine arms). The reward distributions are ini...
Distributed computing systems are a viable and less expensive alternative to parallel computers. However, concurrent programming methods in distributed systems have not been studi...

In order to understand AdaBoost’s dynamics, especially its ability to maximize margins, we derive an associated simplified nonlinear iterated map and analyze its behavior in lo...

We consider probabilistic inference in general hybrid networks, which include continuous and discrete variables in an arbitrary topology. We reexamine the question of variable dis...
— In this paper, we use the Markov Decision Process (MDP) technique to find the optimal code allocation policy in High-Speed Downlink Packet Access (HSDPA) networks. A discrete ...
