A Bayesian Method for Guessing the Extreme Values in a Data Set
For a large number of data management problems, it would be very useful to be able to obtain a few samples from a data set, and to use the samples to guess the largest (or smalles...

Bucket Game with Applications to Set Multicover and Dynamic Page Migration
We present a simple two-person Bucket Game, based on throwing balls into buckets, and we discuss possible players’ strategies. We use these strategies to create an approximation ...

Fuzzy models for prediction based on random set semantics
In this paper we propose a random set framework for learning linguistic models for prediction problems. We show how we can model prediction problems based on learning linguistic p...

Self-Concordant Barriers for Convex Approximations of Structured Convex Sets
We show how to approximate the feasible region of structured convex optimization problems by a family of convex sets with explicitly given and efficient (if the accuracy of the ap...
