The weight of competence under a realistic loss function
In many scientific, economic and policy-related problems, pieces of information from different sources have to be aggregated. Typically, the sources are not equally competent. T...

Robust boosting and its relation to bagging
Several authors have suggested viewing boosting as a gradient descent search for a good fit in function space. At each iteration observations are re-weighted using the gradient of...

On sequential strategies for loss functions with memory
The problem of optimal sequential decision for individual sequences, relative to a class of competing o -line reference strategies, is studied for general loss functions with memo...

Minimizing Packet Loss by Optimizing OSPF Weights Using Online Simulation
In this paper, we present a scheme for minimizing packet loss in OSPF networks by optimizing link weights using Online Simulation. We have chosen packet loss rate in the network a...
