We consider a singular stochastic control problem, which is called the Monotone Follower Stochastic Control Problem and give sufficient conditions for the existence and uniqueness...
Abstract--An approach for the construction of a family of desired order continuous polynomial time window functions is presented without self-convolution of the parent window. The ...
Basis functions derived from an undirected graph connecting nearby samples from a Markov decision process (MDP) have proven useful for approximating value functions. The success o...
Abstract. In 1992, A. Hiltgen [1] provided the first constructions of provably (slightly) secure cryptographic primitives, namely feebly one-way functions. These functions are pro...
It is shown that preferences can be constructed from observed choice behavior in a way that is robust to indifferent selection (i.e., the agent is indifferent between two alternat...
