Mixtures of truncated exponentials (MTE) potentials are an alternative to discretization for representing continuous chance variables in influence diagrams. Also, MTE potentials c...
The ability for an agent to reason under uncertainty is crucial for many planning applications, since an agent rarely has access to complete, error-free information about its envi...
Abstract— The design of efficient and scalable streaming Content Distribution Networks (CDNs) is an open problem of great economic interest. A key decision is the number of repl...

Probabilistic planning problems are typically modeled as a Markov Decision Process (MDP). MDPs, while an otherwise expressive model, allow only for sequential, non-durative action...
An alphabetic binary tree formulation applies to problems in which an outcome needs to be determined via alphabetically ordered search prior to the termination of some window of o...
