We first consider so-called (1,+s)-branching programs in which along every consistent path at most s variables are tested more than once. We prove that any such program computing...
Abstract. We analyze the convergence rate of an asynchronous space decomposition method for constrained convex minimization in a reflexive Banach space. This method includes as spe...
In this work, we discuss practical methods for the assessment, comparison, and selection of complex hierarchical Bayesian models. A natural way to assess the goodness of the model...
