Asymptotic Approximations and Bottleneck Analysis in Product Form Queueing Networks with Large Populations
Asymptotic approximations are constructed for the performance measures of product form queueing networks consisting of single server, fixed rate nodes with large populations. The...

Compact, Convex Upper Bound Iteration for Approximate POMDP Planning
Partially observable Markov decision processes (POMDPs) are an intuitive and general way to model sequential decision making problems under uncertainty. Unfortunately, even approx...

Improved Steiner tree approximation in graphs
The Steiner tree problem in weighted graphs seeks a minimum weight connected subgraph containing a given subset of the vertices terminals. We present a new polynomial-time heurist...

Feature Selection Using Regularization in Approximate Linear Programs for Markov Decision Processes
Approximate dynamic programming has been used successfully in a large variety of domains, but it relies on a small set of provided approximation features to calculate solutions re...

Ranking Approximate Answers to Semantic Web Queries
We consider the problem of a user querying semistructured data such as RDF without knowing its structure. In these circumstances, it is helpful if the querying system can perform a...
