State-dependent importance sampling for a Jackson tandem network
This paper considers importance sampling as a tool for rare-event simulation. The focus is on estimating the probability of overflow in the downstream queue of a Jacksonian two-n...

The double CFTP method
We consider the problem of the exact simulation of random variables Z that satisfy the distributional identity Z L = V Y + (1 − V )Z, where V ∈ [0, 1] and Y are independent, an...

Recognizing Linked Events: Searching the Space of Feasible Explanations
The ambiguity inherent in a localized analysis of events from video can be resolved by exploiting constraints between events and examining only feasible global explanations. We sho...

Near optimal lossy source coding and compression-based denoising via Markov chain Monte Carlo
— We propose an implementable new universal lossy source coding algorithm. The new algorithm utilizes two wellknown tools from statistical physics and computer science: Gibbs sam...
