Estimating the probability of a rare event over a finite time horizon
We study an approximation for the zero-variance change of measure to estimate the probability of a rare event in a continuous-time Markov chain. The rare event occurs when the cha...

Distributed Tuning Attempt Probability for Data Gathering in Random Access Wireless Sensor Networks
In this paper, we study the problem of data gathering in multi-hop wireless sensor networks. To tackle the high degree of channel contention and high probability of packet collisi...

Locating Key Actors in Social Networks Using Bayes' Posterior Probability Framework
Abstract. Typical analytical measures in graph theory like degree centrality, betweenness and closeness centralities are very common and have long history of their successful use. ...

A Game-Theoretic Analysis of Updating Sets of Probabilities
We consider how an agent should update her uncertainty when it is represented by a set P of probability distributions and the agent observes that a random variable X takes on valu...

Toward General Analysis of Recursive Probability Models
There is increasing interest within the research community in the design and use of recursive probability models. There remains concern about computational complexity costs and th...
