We present a new general upper bound on the number of examples required to estimate all of the expectations of a set of random variables uniformly well. The quality of the estimat...

We close the gaps between known lower and upper bounds for the online partial-sums problem in the RAM and group models of computation. If elements are chosen from an abstract grou...
