Simple regret for infinitely many armed bandits [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We consider a stochastic bandit problem with infinitely many arms. In this setting, the learner has no chance of trying all the arms even once and has to dedicate its limited number of samples only to a certain number of arms. All previous algorithms for

Exploring the costs and outcomes of sexually transmitted infection (STI) screening interventions targeting men in football club settings: preliminary cost-consequence analysis of the SPORTSMART pilot randomised controlled trial [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Background: The objective of this study was to compare the costs and outcomes of two sexually transmitted infection (STI) screening interventions targeted at men in football club settings in England, including screening promoted by team captains ...

Arm Ache [PDF]

open access: yesHAND, 2014
Both patients and providers hope for better management strategies for nonspecific activity-related upper limb pain (herein referred to as “arm ache”). The next innovation in the care of arm ache may arise from the strong evidence that mood, coping strategies (e.g., catastrophic thinking), and heightened illness concern—all very responsive to treatment

The Galactic Branches as a Possible Evidence for Transient Spiral Arms

open access: yes, 2015
With the use of a background Milky-Way-like potential model, we performed stellar orbital and magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulations. As a first experiment, we studied the gaseous response to a bisymmetric spiral arm potential: the widely employed cosine ...

The dynamics of spiral arms in pure stellar disks

open access: yes, 2011
It has been believed that spirals in pure stellar disks, especially the ones spontaneously formed, decay in several galactic rotations due to the increase of stellar velocity dispersions.

On the Spiral Structure of the Milky Way Galaxy

open access: yes, 2010
We consider the possible pattern of the overall spiral structure of the Galaxy, using data on the distribution of neutral (atomic), molecular, and ionized hydrogen, on the base of the hypothesis of the spiral structure being symmetric, i.e.

Marcher Castle on Fire. Aftermath of a 15th Century Siege

open access: yesFasciculi Archaeologiae Historicae, 2016
Castle Kolno was set afire and put to r uin on the day of St. Margaret 1443 in the course of the so- called succession war in Silesia. The main purpose of this paper is to present the possible interpretation of selected pieces of archeological evidence ...

Simple mechanism combines positive locking and quick-release features [PDF]

open access: yes, 1964
For secure locking and quick release of two objects, this device uses a spring-loaded slotted bolt, locked in position by two retainer arms.

Combinatorial Network Optimization with Unknown Variables: Multi-Armed Bandits with Linear Rewards [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
In the classic multi-armed bandits problem, the goal is to have a policy for dynamically operating arms that each yield stochastic rewards with unknown means.

Stellar Orbital Studies in Normal Spiral Galaxies II: Restrictions to Structural and Dynamical parameters on Spiral Arms

open access: yes, 2015
Making use of a set of detailed potential models for normal spiral galaxies, we analyze the disk stellar orbital dynamics as the structural and dynamical parameters of the spiral arms (mass, pattern speed and pitch angle) are gradually modified.
