Locating Guards for Visibility Coverage of Polygons
We propose heuristics for visibility coverage of a polygon with the fewest point guards. This optimal coverage problem, often called the “art gallery problem”, is known to be ...

Sharp Bounds on the Entropy of the Poisson Law and Related Quantities
One of the difficulties in calculating the capacity of certain Poisson channels is that H(), the entropy of the Poisson distribution with mean , is not available in a simple form. ...

Complexity of Stochastic Branch and Bound Methods for Belief Tree Search in Bayesian Reinforcement Learning
There has been a lot of recent work on Bayesian methods for reinforcement learning exhibiting near-optimal online performance. The main obstacle facing such methods is that in most...

Basic network creation games
We study a natural network creation game, in which each node locally tries to minimize its local diameter or its local average distance to other nodes, by swapping one incident ed...

Inference in Multilayer Networks via Large Deviation Bounds
We study probabilistic inference in large, layered Bayesian networks represented as directed acyclic graphs. We show that the intractability of exact inference in such networks do...
