In previous work we showed, by Walsh analysis, that summary statistics such as mean, variance, skew, and higher order statistics can be computed in polynomial time for embedded la...
We study how to find plans that maximize the expected total utility for a given MDP, a planning objective that is important for decision making in high-stakes domains. The optimal...
A simple learning rule is derived, the VAPS algorithm, which can be instantiated to generate a wide range of new reinforcementlearning algorithms. These algorithms solve a number ...
We show that a fast algorithm for the QR factorization of a Toeplitz or Hankel matrix A is weakly stable in the sense that RT R is close to AT A. Thus, when the algorithm is used ...

We improve upon a method introduced in (Bertalmio et. al. JCP 2001) for solving evolution PDEs on codimension-one surfaces in RN. As in the original method, by representing the su...
