—This paper introduces a new high-rate analysis of the multiple description scalar quantizer (MDSQ) with balanced descriptions. The analysis provides insight into the structure o...
A method for measuring dissimilarities between cyclic strings is introduced. It computes a weighted mean between two (lower and upper) bounds of the exact cyclic edit distance, wh...
We consider incorporating action elimination procedures in reinforcement learning algorithms. We suggest a framework that is based on learning an upper and a lower estimates of th...
Monte Carlo simulation techniques that use function approximations have been successfully applied to approximately price multi-dimensional American options. However, for many pric...
We propose two novel dynamic programming (DP) methods that solve the the approximate bounded and unbounded global alignment problems for biological sequences. Our first method so...
