The partition function pertaining to finite–temperature decoding of a (typical) randomly chosen code is known to have three types of behavior, corresponding to three phases in ...
We consider the problem of minimizing staffing costs in an inbound call center, while maintaining an acceptable level of service in multiple time periods. The problem is complicat...
Monte Carlo methods have been used extensively in the area of stochastic programming. As with other methods that involve a level of uncertainty, theoretical properties are required...
This paper addresses the problem of rotation estimation directly from images defined on the sphere and without correspondence. The method is particularly useful for the alignment ...
This paper proposes a stochastic fluid flow model to compute the transfer time distribution of resources in peer-to-peer file sharing applications. The amount of bytes transferred...
