The asymptotic distribution of estimates that are based on a sub-optimal search for the maximum of the log-likelihood function is considered. In particular, estimation schemes that...
Abstract. As grid sizes increase, the need for self-organization and dynamic reconfigurations is becoming more and more important, and therefore the convergence of grid computing ...
Crowd simulations require both rendering visually plausible images and managing the behavior of autonomous agents. Therefore, these applications need an efficient design that allo...
Coordination within decentralized agent groups frequently requires reaching global consensus, but typical hierarchical approaches to reaching such decisions can be complex, slow, ...
—Inferring latent structures from observations helps to model and possibly also understand underlying data generating processes. A rich class of latent structures are the latent ...
