Abstract In many statistical problems, maximum likelihood estimation by an EM or MM algorithm suffers from excruciatingly slow convergence. This tendency limits the application of ...
: Both the pancake graph and star graph are Cayley graphs and are especially attractive for parallel processing. They both have sublogarithmic diameter, and are fairly sparse compa...
We describe the Fourier Basis, a linear value function approximation scheme based on the Fourier Series. We empirically evaluate its properties, and demonstrate that it performs w...
A finite number of rational functions are compatible if they satisfy the compatibility conditions of a first-order linear functional system involving differential, shift and q-...
