Guided policy search is a method for reinforcement learning that trains a general policy for accomplishing a given task by guiding the learning of the policy with multiple guiding distributions. Guided policy search relies on learning an underlying d...
Văn Toàn is never addressed by his middle name "Văn" but often by primary name "Toàn", even though he is commonly known as given name "Văn Toàn". Most
We present an effective graph neural network (GNN)-based knowledge graph embedding model, which we name WGE, to capture entity- and relation-focused graph structures. Given a knowledge graph, WGE builds a single undirected entity-focused graph that v...
Given a replicated database, a divergent design tunes the indexes in each replica differently in order to specialize it for a specific subset of the workload. This specialization brings significant performance gains compared to the common practice of...
The teaching of statistics in higher education in the UK is still largely lecture-based. This is despite recommendations such as those given by the American Statistical Association's GAISE report that more emphasis should be placed on active learning...
So this happened about 6 years ago but probably one of my best TIFU stories . So I was backpacking around Europe alone and was due to travel home on a very long flight. Given my backpack was quite he...
An asymptotic formula is given for the number of y-smooth numbers up to x in a Beatty sequence corresponding to an irrational number of finite type....
Given $0<α<1$, the Beatty sequence of density $α$ is the sequence $B_α=(\lfloor n/α\rfloor)_{n\in\mathbb{N}}$. Beatty's theorem states that if $α,β$ are irrational numbers with $α+β=1$, then the Beatty sequences $B_α$ and $B_β$ partition th...
Christer or Krister are varieties of the masculine given name Kristian, derived from the Latin name Christianus, which in turn comes from the Greek word
Christal is a feminine given name. Notable people with the name include: Christal Bezerra, Brazilian artistic gymnast Christal Clashing, Antiguan swimmer
We present Captain Cinema, a generation framework for short movie generation. Given a detailed textual description of a movie storyline, our approach firstly generates a sequence of keyframes that outline the entire narrative, which ensures long-rang...

Given the cost and duration of phase III and phase IV clinical trials, the development of statistical methods for go/no-go decisions is vital. In this paper, we introduce a Bayesian methodology to compute the probability of success based on the curre...
We give a general procedure that provides, given any particular pretzel link, a braid whose closure is the pretzel link. Moreover, we manage to give a specific braid word in terms of the entries of the pretzel link....
We consider a new probabilistic graph searching game played on graphs, inspired by the familiar game of Cops and Robbers. In Zombies and Survivors, a set of zombies attempts to eat a lone survivor loose on a given graph. The zombies randomly choose t...
In this paper, we present a generalization of a syntax-directed editor calculus, which can be used to instantiate a specialized syntax-directed editor for any language, given by some abstract syntax. The editor calculus guarantees the absence of synt...
This paper presents a novel stochastic optimisation methodology to perform empirical Bayesian inference in semi-blind image deconvolution problems. Given a blurred image and a parametric class of possible operators, the proposed optimisation approach...

Calvin Klein. In addition to clothing, he has also given his name to a range of perfumes, watches, and jewellery. Klein was born on November 19, 1942
Given an undirected graph $G = (V, E)$, and a vertex $r\in V$, an $r$-acyclic orientation of $G$ is an orientation $OE$ of the edges of $G$ such that the digraph $OG = (V, OE)$ is acyclic and $r$ is the unique vertex with indegree equal to 0. For $w\...
