For a large class of examples arising in statistical physics known as attractive spin systems (e.g., the Ising model), one seeks to sample from a probability distribution π on an...
This paper addresses the issue of policy evaluation in Markov Decision Processes, using linear function approximation. It provides a unified view of algorithms such as TD(), LSTD()...
Background: R is the preferred tool for statistical analysis of many bioinformaticians due in part to the increasing number of freely available analytical methods. Such methods ca...
We consider a push pull queueing system with two servers and two types of jobs which are processed by the two servers in opposite order, with stochastic generally distributed proc...
— Guidance systems designed for neurosurgery, hip surgery, and spine surgery, and for approaches to other anatomy that is relatively rigid can use rigid-body transformations to a...
