Quantum Speedups for Multiproposal MCMC

Chin-Yi Lin, Kuo-Chin Chen, Philippe Lemey +3

Multiproposal Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) algorithms choose from multiple proposals to generate their next chain step in order to sample from challenging target distributions m…

Structural Risk Minimization for Regression

Adam Gustafson, Matthew Hirn, Kitty Mohammed +2

One means of fitting functions to high-dimensional data is by providing smoothness constraints. Recently, the following smooth function approximation problem was proposed: given a…

Birth/birth-death processes and their computable transition probabilities with biological applications

Lam Si Tung Ho, Jason Xu, Forrest W. Crawford +2

Birth-death processes track the size of a univariate population, but many biological systems involve interaction between populations, necessitating models for two or more populatio…

Birth-death processes

Forrest W. Crawford, Marc A. Suchard

Many important stochastic counting models can be written as general birth-death processes (BDPs). BDPs are continuous-time Markov chains on the non-negative integers and can be use…

Path Following in the Exact Penalty Method of Convex Programming

Hua Zhou, Kenneth Lange

Classical penalty methods solve a sequence of unconstrained problems that put greater and greater stress on meeting the constraints. In the limit as the penalty constant tends to $…
