Extraordinary structural organization known as emergence is observed in partially ordered sets when a recently discovered functional is minimized. Emergence creates the first stru...
We introduce several generalizations of classical computer science problems obtained by replacing simpler objective functions with general submodular functions. The new problems i...
Bandit convex optimization is a special case of online convex optimization with partial information. In this setting, a player attempts to minimize a sequence of adversarially gen...
We present new algorithms for inverse optimal control (or inverse reinforcement learning, IRL) within the framework of linearlysolvable MDPs (LMDPs). Unlike most prior IRL algorit...
Background: Identifying functional elements, such as transcriptional factor binding sites, is a fundamental step in reconstructing gene regulatory networks and remains a challengi...
