Approximate Solutions for Partially Observable Stochastic Games with Common Payoffs
Partially observable decentralized decision making in robot teams is fundamentally different from decision making in fully observable problems. Team members cannot simply apply si...

Amsaa: A Multistep Anticipatory Algorithm for Online Stochastic Combinatorial Optimization
The one-step anticipatory algorithm (1s-AA) is an online algorithm making decisions under uncertainty by ignoring future non-anticipativity constraints. It makes near-optimal decis...

Fast Curvature Matrix-Vector Products
The method of conjugate gradients provides a very effective way to optimize large, deterministic systems by gradient descent. In its standard form, however, it is not amenable to ...

A Stochastic Method for Solving Inverse Problems in Epidemic Modelling
— We describe a stochastic optimization method that can be used to solve inverse problems in epidemic modelling. Although in general it cannot be expected that these inverse prob...

Mean Field Variational Approximation for Continuous-Time Bayesian Networks
Continuous-time Bayesian networks is a natural structured representation language for multicomponent stochastic processes that evolve continuously over time. Despite the compact r...
