Abstract. The paper develops a necessary condition for the regularity of a multivariate refinable function in terms of a factorization property of the associated subdivision mask. ...
Let O be an order of an algebraic number field. It was shown by Ge that given a factorization of an O-ideal a into a product of O-ideals it is possible to compute in polynomial tim...
Approximate linear programming (ALP) offers a promising framework for solving large factored Markov decision processes (MDPs) with both discrete and continuous states. Successful ...
This paper describes an algorithm for solving large state-space MDPs (represented as factored MDPs) using search by successive refinement in the space of non-homogeneous partition...
