On the basis of detailed analysis of reaction times and neurophysiological data from tasks involving choice, it has been proposed that the brain implements an optimal statistical ...
Discrimination in social sense (e.g., against minorities and disadvantaged groups) is the subject of many laws worldwide, and it has been extensively studied in the social and eco...
The paper presents an efficient solution to decision problems where direct partial information on the distribution of the states of nature is available, either by observations of ...
Starting from first principles, we re-visit the statistical approach and study two forms of the Bayes decision rule: the common rule for minimizing the number of string errors and...
A fast mode decision algorithm for an H.264 encoder is proposed which reduces computation by using a statistical dependency of macroblock rate-distortion (RD) costs. The algorithm...
