Dependent Dirichlet Priors and Optimal Linear Estimators for Belief Net Parameters
A Bayesian belief network is a model of a joint distribution over a finite set of variables, with a DAG structure representing immediate dependencies among the variables. For each...

Qualitative Simulation as a Temporally-extended Constraint Satisfaction Problem
qYaditionally, constraint satisfaction problems(CSPs) are characterized using a finite set of constraints expressed within a common,shared constraint language. Whenreasoning acros...

Sequential Allocations that Reduce Risk for Multiple Comparisons
We consider how to efficiently allocate computing resources in order to infer the best of a finite set of simulated systems, where best means that the system has the maximal expec...

Comparison of Bayesian and Frequentist Assessments of Uncertainty for Selecting the Best System
An important problem in discrete-event stochastic simulation is the selection of the best system from a finite set of alternatives. There are many techniques for ranking and selec...
