Comparison of methods for estimating the nucleotide substitution matrix
Background: The nucleotide substitution rate matrix is a key parameter of molecular evolution. Several methods for inferring this parameter have been proposed, with different math...

The Bias Problem and Language Models in Adaptive Filtering
We used the YFILTER filtering system for experiments on updating profiles and setting thresholds. We developed a new method of using language models for updating profiles that is ...

Variational methods for Reinforcement Learning
We consider reinforcement learning as solving a Markov decision process with unknown transition distribution. Based on interaction with the environment, an estimate of the transit...

Asymptotically Optimal Model Estimation for Quantization
—Using high-rate theory approximations we introduce flexible practical quantizers based on possibly non-Gaussian models in both the constrained resolution (CR) and the constrain...
