In this paper we use policy-iteration to explore the behaviour of optimal control policies for lost sales inventory models with the constraint that not more than one replenishment...
This paper presents a recognition system for isolated handwritten Bangla words, with a fixed lexicon, using a left-right Hidden Markov Model (HMM). A stochastic search method, nam...
Applications involving large sparse nonsymmetric linear systems encourage parallel implementations of robust iterative solution methods, such as GMRES(k). Two parallel versions of...

The need to understand dynamic behavior in auctions is increasing with the popularization of online auctions. Applications include designing auction mechanisms, bidding strategies...
The multi-armed bandit is a concise model for the problem of iterated decision-making under uncertainty. In each round, a gambler must pull one of K arms of a slot machine, withou...
