Bayesian Model Averaging Across Model Spaces via Compact Encoding
Bayesian Model Averaging (BMA) is well known for improving predictive accuracy by averaging inferences over all models in the model space. However, Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC)...

Pseudometrics for State Aggregation in Average Reward Markov Decision Processes
We consider how state similarity in average reward Markov decision processes (MDPs) may be described by pseudometrics. Introducing the notion of adequate pseudometrics which are we...

Schema Analysis of Average Fitness in Multiplicative Landscape
By applying the schema theorem, we study the effects of crossover in Genetic Algorithms with the multiplicative fitness function. On this landscape, the analytical expression of ...

Constructing a meaningful evolutionary average at the phylogenetic center of mass
Background: As a consequence of the evolutionary process, data collected from related species tend to be similar. This similarity by descent can obscure subtler signals in the dat...
