On optimal quantization rules for some sequential decision problems
We consider the problem of sequential decentralized detection, a problem that entails several interdependent choices: the choice of a stopping rule (specifying the sample size), a...

A Novel Method for Solving Multiscale Elliptic Problems with Randomly Perturbed Data
We propose a method for efficient solution of elliptic problems with multiscale features and randomly perturbed coefficients. We use the multiscale finite element method (MsFEM) as...

On Variants of the Matroid Secretary Problem
We present a number of positive and negative results for variants of the matroid secretary problem. Most notably, we design a constant-factor competitive algorithm for the “rando...
