Abstract. We propose a new solution method for optimal stopping problems with random discounting for linear diffusions whose state space has a combination of natural, absorbing, or...
We introduce an alternative to the smoothing technique approach for constrained optimization. As it turns out for any given smoothing function there exists a modification with part...
Generative topic models such as LDA are limited by their inability to utilize nontrivial input features to enhance their performance, and many topic models assume that topic assig...
Abstract—The paper studies the convergence properties of the estimation error processes in distributed Kalman filtering for potentially unstable linear dynamical systems. In par...
