We consider the problem of actively learning the mean values of distributions associated with a finite number of options. The decision maker can select which option to generate t...
A compiler optimization is sound if the optimized program that it produces is semantically equivalent to the input program. The proofs of semantic equivalence are usually tedious....
The potentially catastrophic impact of a bioterrorist attack makes developing effective detection methods essential for public health. In the case of anthrax attack, a delay of ho...
The problem of online sampling of data, can be seen as a generalization of the classical secretary problem. The goal is to maximize the probability of picking the k highest scorin...
