Deterministic Sampling Algorithms for Network Design
For several NP-hard network design problems, the best known approximation algorithms are remarkably simple randomized algorithms called Sample-Augment algorithms in [11]. The algor...

Exact analysis of the sampling distribution for the canonical particle swarm optimiser and its convergence during stagnation
Several theoretical analyses of the dynamics of particle swarms have been offered in the literature over the last decade. Virtually all rely on substantial simplifications, incl...

Adaptive Informative Sampling for Active Learning
Many approaches to active learning involve periodically training one classifier and choosing data points with the lowest confidence. An alternative approach is to periodically cho...

Optimal Reflection of Diffusions and Barrier Options Pricing under Constraints
We introduce a new class of control problems in which the gain depends on the solution of a stochastic differential equation reflected at the boundary of a bounded domain, along d...

Learning Permutations with Exponential Weights
We give an algorithm for the on-line learning of permutations. The algorithm maintains its uncertainty about the target permutation as a doubly stochastic weight matrix, and makes...
