Iterative construction of the optimal Bermudan stopping time
Abstract. We present an iterative procedure for computing the optimal Bermudan stopping time, hence the Bermudan Snell envelope. The method produces an increasing sequence of appro...

An Iterative Method for Edge-Preserving MAP Estimation When Data-Noise Is Poisson
In numerous applications of image processing, e.g. astronomical and medical imaging, data-noise is well-modeled by a Poisson distribution. This motivates the use of the negative-lo...

Self-Organization of Patrolling-Ant Algorithms
—We consider here multi-agent patrolling as the task for a group of agents to repeatedly visit all the cells of a discrete environment. Wagner et al. [1] have introduced patrolli...

Consensus-based distributed linear filtering
We address the consensus-based distributed linear filtering problem, where a discrete time, linear stochastic process is observed by a network of sensors. We assume that the consen...

Point-Based Value Iteration for Continuous POMDPs
We propose a novel approach to optimize Partially Observable Markov Decisions Processes (POMDPs) defined on continuous spaces. To date, most algorithms for model-based POMDPs are ...
