The Perils of Misspecified Priors and Optional Stopping in Multi-Armed Bandits
The connection between optimal stopping times of American Options and multi-armed bandits is the subject of active research. This article investigates the effects of optional stopping in a particular class of multi-armed bandit experiments, which ...

Optimal stopping with randomly arriving opportunities to stop
We develop methods to solve general optimal stopping problems with opportunities to stop that arrive randomly. Such problems occur naturally in applications with market frictions. Pivotal to our approach is that our methods operate on random rather than deterministic time scales.

Solving optimal stopping problems via randomization and empirical dual optimization [PDF]
In this paper we consider optimal stopping problems in their dual form. In this way we reformulate the optimal stopping problem as a problem of stochastic average approximation (SAA) which can be solved via linear programming.

An urn contains $N$ objects, labelled with the integers $1, \cdots, N$. One object is removed at a time, without replacement. If after $n$ draws the largest number which has been observed is $m_n$, and the process is terminated, we receive a payoff $f(n, m_n)$. For payoff functions $f$ in a certain class, the optimal time to stop is with draw $$\tau_f =

An Energy-Aware Transmission Target Selection Mechanism for UAV Networking
The energy consumption of transmitting data during the process of UAVs co-execution task affects the performance of the UAV CPU and the quality of the task accomplished. In order to reduce the energy consumption of data transmission in UAV networks, this

Concentration Inequalities and Optimal Number of Layers for Stochastic Deep Neural Networks
We state concentration inequalities for the output of the hidden layers of a stochastic deep neural network (SDNN), as well as for the output of the whole SDNN.
