We develop a high dimensional nonparametric classification method named sparse additive machine (SAM), which can be viewed as a functional version of support vector machine (SVM)...
—We study two convex optimization problems in a multi-class M/G/1 queue with adjustable service rates: minimizing convex functions of the average delay vector, and minimizing ave...
Capacity control in perceptron decision trees is typically performed by controlling their size. We prove that other quantities can be as relevant to reduce their flexibility and co...

We describe some extensions to the grid smoothing scheme described in [1, 2] that deal with the following issues: 1) the clustering effect of changing valence in an unstructured ...
This paper studies the problem of e ciently scheduling fully strict (i.e., wellstructured) multithreaded computations on parallel computers. A popular and practical method of sche...
