Change Rate Estimation and Optimal Freshness in Web Page Crawling
Konstantin Avrachenkov, Kishor Patil, Gugan Thoppe
For providing quick and accurate results, a search engine maintains a local snapshot of the entire web. And, to keep this local cache fresh, it employs a crawler for tracking chang…
A Tale of Two-Timescale Reinforcement Learning with the Tightest Finite-Time Bound
Gal Dalal, Balazs Szorenyi, Gugan Thoppe
Policy evaluation in reinforcement learning is often conducted using two-timescale stochastic approximation, which results in various gradient temporal difference methods such as G…
Generalized Network Tomography (journal version)
Gugan Thoppe
Generalized network tomography (GNT) deals with estimation of link performance parameters for networks with arbitrary topologies using only end-to-end path measurements of pure uni…
Generalized Network Tomography
Gugan Thoppe
For successful estimation, the usual network tomography algorithms crucially require i) end-to-end data generated using multicast probe packets, real or emulated, and ii) the netwo…
