Guessing the extreme values in a data set: a Bayesian method and its applications
For a largenumber 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 smallest)...

Are Bayesian Inferences Weak for Wasserman's Example?
: An example was given in the textbook All of Statistics (Wasserman, 2004, pages 186-188) for arguing that, in the problems with a great many parameters Bayesian inferences are wea...

Geometric Variance Reduction in Markov Chains: Application to Value Function and Gradient Estimation
We study a sequential variance reduction technique for Monte Carlo estimation of functionals in Markov Chains. The method is based on designing sequential control variates using s...
