Confluently Persistent Tries for Efficient Version Control
We consider a data-structural problem motivated by version control of a hierarchical directory structure in a system like Subversion. The model is that directories and files can b...

Online convex optimization in the bandit setting: gradient descent without a gradient
We study a general online convex optimization problem. We have a convex set S and an unknown sequence of cost functions c1, c2, . . . , and in each period, we choose a feasible po...

Meta-optimizing semantic evolutionary search
I present MOSES (meta-optimizing semantic evolutionary search), a new probabilistic modeling (estimation of distribution) approach to program evolution. Distributions are not esti...
