Computing and Using Lower and Upper Bounds for Action Elimination in MDP Planning
Abstract. We describe a way to improve the performance of MDP planners by modifying them to use lower and upper bounds to eliminate non-optimal actions during their search. First, ...

Improved Lower Bounds for Locally Decodable Codes and Private Information Retrieval
We prove new lower bounds for locally decodable codes and private information retrieval. We show that a 2-query LDC encoding nbit strings over an ℓ-bit alphabet, where the decode...
