On Random Orderings of Variables for Parity OBDDs
Ordered binary decision diagrams (OBDDs) are a model for representing Boolean functions. There is also a more powerful variant called parity OBDDs. The size of the representation of a given function depends in both these models on an ordering of the variables. It is known that there are functions such that almost all orderings of its variables yield an OBDD of polynomial size, but there are als...
متن کاملA perspective on the extension of stochastic orderings to fuzzy random variables
In this paper we study how to make joint extensions of stochastic orderings and interval orderings so as to extend methods for comparing random variables, from the point of view of their respective location or magnitude, to fuzzy random variables. The main idea is that the way fuzzy random variables are interpreted affects the choice of the comparison methods. We distinguish three views of fuzz...
متن کاملDiscrete Random Variables over Domains
In this paper we initiate the study of discrete random variables over domains. Our work is inspired by work of Daniele Varacca, who devised indexed valuations as models of probabilistic computation within domain theory. Our approach relies on new results about commutative monoids defined on domains that also allow actions of the non-negative reals. Using our approach, we define two such familie...
متن کاملProbability Models.S2 Discrete Random Variables
For a particular decision situation, the analyst must assign a distribution to each random variable. One method is to perform repeated replications of the experiment. Statistical analysis provides estimates of the probability of each possible occurrence. Another, and often more practical method, is to identify the distribution to be one of the named distributions. It is much easier to estimate ...
متن کاملWavelets for Nonparametric Stochastic Regression with Pairwise Negative Quadrant Dependent Random Variables
We propose a wavelet based stochastic regression function estimator for the estimation of the regression function for a sequence of pairwise negative quadrant dependent random variables with a common one-dimensional probability density function. Some asymptotic properties of the proposed estimator are investigated. It is found that the estimators have similar properties to their counterparts st...
