Combining online and offline knowledge in UCT
The UCT algorithm learns a value function online using sample-based search. The TD() algorithm can learn a value function offline for the on-policy distribution. We consider three...

Average task times in usability tests: what to report?
The distribution of task time data in usability studies is positively skewed. Practitioners who are aware of this positive skew tend to report the sample median. Monte Carlo simul...

Beyond the Model of Persistent TCP Flows: Open-Loop vs Closed-Loop Arrivals of Non-persistent Flows
It is common for simulation and analytical studies to model Internet traffic as an aggregation of mostly persistent TCP flows. In practice, however, flows follow a heavytailed ...

A Generic Mean Field Convergence Result for Systems of Interacting Objects
We consider a model for interacting objects, where the evolution of each object is given by a finite state Markov chain, whose transition matrix depends on the present and the pa...
