Job Scheduling and Resource Management Techniques in Economic Grid Environments
Abstract. In this paper, we analyze the problem of grid resource brokering in the presence of economic information about the price of resources. We examine in detail the main tasks...

A new Particle Filtering algorithm with structurally optimal importance function
Bayesian estimation in nonlinear stochastic dynamical systems has been addressed for a long time. Among other solutions, Particle Filtering (PF) algorithms propagate in time a Mon...

A fast estimation of SRAM failure rate using probability collectives
Importance sampling is a popular approach to estimate rare event failures of SRAM cells. We propose to improve importance sampling by probability collectives. First, we use “Kul...

Variance Reduction Techniques for Gradient Estimates in Reinforcement Learning
Policy gradient methods for reinforcement learning avoid some of the undesirable properties of the value function approaches, such as policy degradation (Baxter and Bartlett, 2001...

Optimal SIR algorithm vs. fully adapted auxiliary particle filter: A matter of conditional independence
Particle filters (PF) and auxiliary particle filters (APF) are widely used sequential Monte Carlo (SMC) techniques. In this paper we comparatively analyse the Sampling Importanc...
