The Randomness Recycler: A New Technique for Perfect Sampling
For many probability distributions of interest, it is quite difficult to obtain samples efficiently. Often, Markov chains are employed to obtain approximately random samples fro...

Prototype and Feature Selection by Sampling and Random Mutation Hill Climbing Algorithms
With the goal of reducing computational costs without sacrificing accuracy, we describe two algorithms to find sets of prototypes for nearest neighbor classification. Here, the te...

Estimating and Sampling Graphs with Multidimensional Random Walks
Estimating characteristics of large graphs via sampling is a vital part of the study of complex networks. Current sampling methods such as (independent) random vertex and random w...

On-Line Search for Solving Markov Decision Processes via Heuristic Sampling
In the past, Markov Decision Processes (MDPs) have become a standard for solving problems of sequential decision under uncertainty. The usual request in this framework is the compu...

Efficient physics-based planning: sampling search via non-deterministic tactics and skills
Motion planning for mobile agents, such as robots, acting in the physical world is a challenging task, which traditionally concerns safe obstacle avoidance. We are interested in p...
