Abstract: Gaussian belief propagation is an iterative algorithm for computing the mean of a multivariate Gaussian distribution. Equivalently, the min-sum algorithm can be used to compute the minimum ...

All quadratic functions have the same type of curved graphs with a line of symmetry. The graph of the quadratic function \(y = ax^2 + bx + c \) has a minimum turning point when \(a \textgreater 0 \) ...

Abstract: This paper considers the design of output regulators with the use of approximate models. The measure of the approximation between process and model outputs ...

Often neither the exact density nor the exact cumulative distribution function (c.d.f.) of a statistic of interest is available in the statistics and econometrics literature (e.g., the maximum ...
