We introduce and study a randomized quasi-Monte Carlo method for estimating the state distribution at each step of a Markov chain. The number of steps in the chain can be random an...
As biometric authentication systems become more prevalent, it is becoming increasingly important to evaluate their performance. The current paper introduces a novel statistical me...
In this paper we derive a general system of transport equations for the moments of reflected and transmitted mode amplitudes in a randomly perturbed waveguide, in a regime where ba...
Theoretical analysis of the Web graph is often used to improve the efficiency of search engines. The PageRank algorithm, proposed by [5], is used by the Google search engine [4] t...
ABSTRACT. In this paper, illocutionary acts of commanding will be differentiated from perlocutionary acts that affect preferences of addressees in a new dynamic logic which combine...
