The Role of Critical Sets in Vapnik-Chervonenkis Theory
In the present paper, we present the theoretical basis, as well as an empirical validation, of a protocol designed to obtain effective VC dimension estimations in the case of a si...

Sample Size Estimation using the Receiver Operating Characteristic Curve
In this paper we describe two related approaches to estimating the sample sizes required to statistically compare the performance of two classifiers: acceptable failure rates (AFR...

Exploiting Multiple Secondary Reinforcers in Policy Gradient Reinforcement Learning
Most formulations of Reinforcement Learning depend on a single reinforcement reward value to guide the search for the optimal policy solution. If observation of this reward is rar...

Time delay estimation in the time-frequency domain based on a line detection approach
The estimation of the time delay of arrival (TDOA) or the direction of arrival (DOA) has been an important research topic within the last few decades. In several applications, e.g...

A preliminary study of optimal splitting for rare-event simulation
Efficiency is a big concern when using simulation to estimate rare-event probabilities, since a huge number of simulation replications may be needed in order to obtain a reasonabl...
