We can view the adversary’s attack as follows: first, the adversary receives a public key y, where y = f (x) for random x ∈ {0, 1} k . Next, the adversary — playing the role of a verifier who may act i ...

EM Demystified: An Expectation-Maximization
... Expectation-maximization (EM) is a method to find the maximum likelihood estimator of a parameter θ of a probability distribution. Let’s start with an example. Say that the probability of the temperature outside your window for each of the 24 hours of a day x ∈ R24 depends on the season θ ∈ {summer, ...

Introducing this simple bloat control, [Neu12] was able to give tight bounds on the optimization time in the case of k = 1: in this setting, no new redundant leaves can be introduced. The hard part is now to give an analysis when k = ...

Let us use A for the major term, B for the middle term, and C for the minor term. We abbreviate truth as T and falsity as F. The major and mi ...

Probability box
),steps=500.png?width=300)
A probability box (or p-box) is a characterization of an uncertain number consisting of both aleatoric and epistemic uncertainties that is often used in risk analysis or quantitative uncertainty modeling where numerical calculations must be performed. Probability bounds analysis is used to make arithmetic and logical calculations with p-boxes.An example p-box is shown in the figure at right for an uncertain number x consisting of a left (upper) bound and a right (lower) bound on the probability distribution for x. The bounds are coincident for values of x below 0 and above 24. The bounds may have almost any shapes, including step functions, so long as they are monotonically increasing and do not cross each other. A p-box is used to express simultaneously incertitude (epistemic uncertainty), which is represented by the breadth between the left and right edges of the p-box, and variability (aleatory uncertainty), which is represented by the overall slant of the p-box.
