The problem of nding the best answers to a query quickly, rather than nding all answers, is of increasing importance as relational databases are applied in multimedia and decision...
In this paper we apply the method of complexity regularization to derive estimation bounds for nonlinear function estimation using a single hidden layer radial basis function netwo...
We consider bandit problems involving a large (possibly infinite) collection of arms, in which the expected reward of each arm is a linear function of an r-dimensional random vect...
The damage inflicted by viruses and worms has been limited because the payloads that are most lucrative to malware authors have also posed the greatest risks to them. The problem...
When liquidating a portfolio of large blocks of risky assets, an institutional investor wants to minimize the cost as well as the risk of execution. An optimal execution strategy ...
