We prove general exponential moment inequalities for averages of [0,1]valued iid random variables and use them to tighten the PAC Bayesian Theorem. The logarithmic dependence on t...

This paper presents a general method to derive tight rates of convergence for numerical approximations in optimal control when we consider variable resolution grids. We study the ...

We consider {0, 1}n as a sample space with a probability measure on it, thus making pseudo-Boolean functions into random variables. We then derive explicit formulas for approximat...

Contrastive Divergence (CD) is a popular method for estimating the parameters of Markov Random Fields (MRFs) by rapidly approximating an intractable term in the gradient of the lo...
