Defence trees are used to represent attack and defence strategies in security scenarios; the aim in such scenarios is to select the best set of countermeasures that are able to st...
— Studies of human manipulation strategies suggest that pre-grasp object manipulation, such as rotation or sliding of the object to be grasped, can improve task performance by in...

-- Most optimization algorithms that use probabilistic models focus on extracting the information from good solutions found in the population. A selection method discards the below...
In this work we address the problem of solving multiscenario optimization models that are deterministic equivalents of two-stage stochastic programs. We present a heuristic approx...
We derive a knowledge gradient policy for an optimal learning problem on a graph, in which we use sequential measurements to refine Bayesian estimates of individual edge values i...
