Near-Optimal Hashing Algorithms for Approximate Nearest Neighbor in High Dimensions
We present an algorithm for the c-approximate nearest neighbor problem in a d-dimensional Euclidean space, achieving query time of O(dn1/c2 +o(1) ) and space O(dn + n1+1/c2 +o(1) ...

Estimating Range Queries Using Aggregate Data with Integrity Constraints: A Probabilistic Approach
In fast OLAP applications it is often advantageous to provide approximate answers to range queries in order to achieve very high performances. A possible solution is to inquire sum...

Simultaneous perturbation stochastic approximation of nonsmooth functions
A simultaneous perturbation stochastic approximation (SPSA) method has been developed in this paper, using the operators of perturbation with the Lipschitz density function. This ...

Experts in a Markov Decision Process
We consider an MDP setting in which the reward function is allowed to change during each time step of play (possibly in an adversarial manner), yet the dynamics remain fixed. Simi...
