Complexity of Probabilistic Planning under Average Rewards
A general and expressive model of sequential decision making under uncertainty is provided by the Markov decision processes (MDPs) framework. Complex applications with very large ...

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...

Has portfolio theory got any principles?
Recently, Portfolio Theory (PT) has been proposed for Information Retrieval. However, under non-trivial conditions PT violates the original Probability Ranking Principle (PRP). In...

Polyhedral Finite Elements Using Harmonic Basis Functions
Finite element simulations in computer graphics are typically based on tetrahedral or hexahedral elements, which enables simple and efficient implementations, but in turn requires...

The Accuracy of Tree-based Counting in Dynamic Networks
Tree-based protocols are ubiquitous in distributed systems. They are flexible, they perform generally well, and, in static conditions, their analysis is mostly simple. Under churn...
