Efficient Planning in Large POMDPs through Policy Graph Based Factorized Approximations
Partially observable Markov decision processes (POMDPs) are widely used for planning under uncertainty. In many applications, the huge size of the POMDP state space makes straightf...

Nearly Optimal Expected-Case Planar Point Location
We consider the planar point location problem from the perspective of expected search time. We are given a planar polygonal subdivision S and for each polygon of the subdivision t...

The Price of Bandit Information for Online Optimization
In the online linear optimization problem, a learner must choose, in each round, a decision from a set D ⊂ Rn in order to minimize an (unknown and changing) linear cost function...

Competitive buffer management with packet dependencies
We introduce the problem of managing a FIFO buffer of bounded space, where arriving packets have dependencies among them. Our model is motivated by the scenario where large data f...
