A General Framework for Mining Concept-Drifting Data Streams with Skewed Distributions
In recent years, there have been some interesting studies on predictive modeling in data streams. However, most such studies assume relatively balanced and stable data streams but...

Estimating the unseen: A sublinear-sample canonical estimator of distributions
We introduce a new approach to characterizing the unobserved portion of a distribution, which provides sublinear-sample additive estimators for a class of properties that includes...

Quantitative Program Logic and Performance in Probabilistic Distributed Algorithms
In this paper we show how quantitative program logic [14] provides a formal framework in which to promote standard techniques of program analysis to a context where probability and...

On Model Checking Techniques for Randomized Distributed Systems
Abstract. The automata-based model checking approach for randomized distributed systems relies on an operational interleaving semantics of the system by means of a Markov decision ...
