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...

Engagement tracing: using response times to model student disengagement
Time on task is an important predictor for how much students learn. However, students must be focused on their learning for the time invested to be productive. Unfortunately, stude...

Body Localization in Still Images Using Hierarchical Models and Hybrid Search
We present a 3-level hierarchical model for localizing human bodies in still images from arbitrary viewpoints. We first fit a simple tree-structured model defined on a small landm...

Resource Allocation over Network Dynamics without Timescale Separation
—We consider a widely applicable model of resource allocation where two sequences of events are coupled: on a continuous time axis (t), network dynamics evolve over time. On a di...

More "Normal" Than Normal: Scaling Distributions and Complex Systems
One feature of many naturally occurring or engineered complex systems is tremendous variability in event sizes. To account for it, the behavior of these systems is often described...
