We propose an online algorithm for sequential learning in the contextual multiarmed bandit setting. Our approach is to partition the context space and, then, optimally combine all of the possible mappings between the partition regions and the set of bandit ...

Nested Convex Bodies are Chaseable

Marek Elias

In the Convex Body Chasing problem, we are given an initial point v0. Rd and an online sequence of n convex bodies F1,..., Fn. When we receive Ft, we are required to move inside Ft. Our goal is to minimize the total distance traveled. This fundamental onli ...

Freight railway network design problem

Michel Bierlaire, Virginie Janine Camille Lurkin, Nikola Obrenovic

In freight railway networks, commodities are usually transported via hubs, which are called marshaling or shunting yards, depending on their capacity. Consequently, the number and locations of these yards effect the transport costs to a great extent. The ...

Dynamic Facility Location via Exponential Clocks

Ola Nils Anders Svensson, Ashkan Norouzi Fard, Hyung Chan An

The dynamic facility location problem is a generalization of the classic facility location problem proposed by Eisenstat, Mathieu, and Schabanel to model the dynamics of evolving social/infrastructure networks. The generalization lies in that the distance ...

LPN in Cryptography

Sonia Mihaela Bogos

The security of public-key cryptography relies on well-studied hard problems, problems for which we do not have efficient algorithms. Factorization and discrete logarithm are the two most known and used hard problems. Unfortunately, they can be easily solv ...

Centrality of trees for capacitated -center

Ola Nils Anders Svensson, Hyung Chan An, Aditya Bhaskara

We consider the capacitated -center problem. In this problem we are given a finite set of locations in a metric space and each location has an associated non-negative integer capacity. The goal is to choose (open) locations (called centers) and assign each ...

Evaluation of control strategies for fixed-wing drones following slow-moving ground agents

Dario Floreano, Jean-Christophe Zufferey, Grégoire Hilaire Marie Heitz, Maja Varga

There are many situations where fixed-wing drones may be required to track ground moving agents, such as humans or cars, which are typically slower than drones. Some control strategies have been proposed and validated in simulations using the average dista ...

We consider the capacitated k-center problem. In this problem we are given a finite set of locations in a metric space and each location has an associated non-negative integer capacity. The goal is to choose (open) k locations (called centers) and assign e ...

Springer2014

Some new results are presented concerning the search and approximation of solutions of equations in metric spaces using functionals strictly subordinated to a convergent series and functionals compatible with a convergent series. These classes of functiona ...
