Study designs: Part 5 – interventional studies (II)
Perspectives in Clinical Research, 2019 In the fifth piece of this series on research study designs, we continue the discussion on interventional studies (clinical trials), in which the investigator decides whether or not a particular participant receives the exposure (or intervention).

Balanced allocation through random walk [PDF]
Information Processing Letters, 2018 We consider the allocation problem in which $m \leq (1- ) dn $ items are to be allocated to $n$ bins with capacity $d$. The items $x_1,x_2,\ldots,x_m$ arrive sequentially and when item $x_i$ arrives it is given two possible bin locations $p_i=h_1(x_i),q_i=h_2(x_i)$ via hash functions $h_1,h_2$.

Optimal Resource Allocation in Random Networks with Transportation Bandwidths [PDF]
, 2009 We apply statistical physics to study the task of resource allocation in random sparse networks with limited bandwidths for the transportation of resources along the links. Useful algorithms are obtained from recursive relations.

Optimal Power Allocation for Artificial Noise Under Imperfect CSI Against Spatially Random Eavesdroppers [PDF]
IEEE Transactions on Vehicular Technology, 2016 In this paper, we study the secure multiantenna transmission with artificial noise (AN) under imperfect channel state information (CSI) in the presence of spatially randomly distributed eavesdroppers.

Distributed resource allocation over random networks based on stochastic approximation [PDF]
Systems & control letters (Print), 2015 In this paper, a stochastic approximation (SA) based distributed algorithm is proposed to solve the resource allocation (RA) with uncertainties. In this problem, a group of agents cooperatively optimize a separable optimization problem with a linear ...
