Binary Searching with Nonuniform Costs and Its Application to Text Retrieval
We study the problem of minimizing the expected cost of binary searching for data where the access cost is not fixed and depends on the last accessed element, such as data stored i...

Advection-Diffusion Equations for Internal State-Mediated Random Walks
Abstract. In many biological examples of biased random walks, movement statistics are determined by state dynamics that are internal to the organism or cell and that mediate respon...

On Binary Searching with Nonuniform Costs
Let us consider an ordered vector A[1 : n]. If the cost of testing each position is similar, then the standard binary search is the best strategy to search the vector. This is true...
