In this paper we examine the problem of estimating the parameters of a multinomial distribution over a large number of discreteoutcomes,most of which do not appearin the training ...
The execution order of a block of computer instructions can make a difference in its running time by a factor of two or more. In order to achieve the best possible speed, compiler...
We prove that the First Fit bin packing algorithm is stable under the input distribution U{k - 2, k} for all k 3, settling an open question from the recent survey by Coffman, Gar...
In this paper we address the problem of discretization in the context of learning Bayesian networks (BNs) from data containing both continuous and discrete variables. We describe ...
GPSS/H is a well-known, traditional simulation tool whose user base continues to grow despite the presence of many "new" trends in simulation technology. In GPSS/H, the ...
