We propose a new approach to the problem of searching a space of policies for a Markov decision process (MDP) or a partially observable Markov decision process (POMDP), given a mo...
The discovery of objects with exceptional behavior is an important challenge from a knowledge discovery standpoint and has attracted much attention recently. In this paper, we pre...
We study the complexity of building pseudorandom generators (PRGs) with logarithmic seed length from hard functions. We show that, starting from a function f : {0, 1}l → {0, 1} ...
We consider the problem of estimating a deterministic sparse vector x0 from underdetermined measurements Ax0 +w, where w represents white Gaussian noise and A is a given determinis...
Combinatorial auctions (CAs) have emerged as an important model in economics and show promise as a useful tool for tackling resource allocation in AI. Unfortunately, winner determ...
