Self-Balancing Sequential Sampling: Fast Convergence with Controlled Predictability
Zachary McNulty, Daniel Raban
Many instances of sequential sampling, including audit and inspection scheduling, representative sampling, and treatment assignment, require selections to be distributed evenly wit…
Coupling Theory, Optimal Transport, and Strassen's Theorem for Eventual Domination
Adam Quinn Jaffe, Daniel Raban
Many results in probability (most famously, Strassen's theorem on stochastic domination), characterize some relationship between probability distributions in terms of the existence…
Laws of Large Numbers for Information Resolution
Daniel Raban
Laws of large numbers establish asymptotic guarantees for recovering features of a probability distribution using independent samples. We introduce a framework for proving analogou…
Rotatable random sequences in local fields
Steven N. Evans, Daniel Raban
An infinite sequence of real random variables is said to be rotatable if every finite subsequence has a spherically symmetric distribution.…
