An optimization can be specified as sequential compositions of predefined transformation primitives. For each primitive, we can define soundness conditions which guarantee that th...

Planning can often be simplified by decomposing the task into smaller tasks arranged hierarchically. Charlin et al. [4] recently showed that the hierarchy discovery problem can be...
The next phase of human genomics will involve largescale screens of populations for signi cant DNA polymorphisms, notably single nucleotide polymorphisms SNP's. Dense human S...
We consider the average cost problem for partially observable Markov decision processes (POMDP) with finite state, observation, and control spaces. We prove that there exists an -...
