Underlying Assumptions and Designated Verifier Signatures
"... Abstract. In this paper, we define an underlying computational problem and its decisional problem. As an application of their problems, we propose an efficient designated verifier signature (DVS) scheme without random oracles (related to symmetric pairings). We formally redefine the (Strong) Privacy ..."

Nonparametric estimation of average treatment effects under exogeneity: a review
- REVIEW OF ECONOMICS AND STATISTICS
, 2004
"... Recently there has been a surge in econometric work focusing on estimating average treatment effects under various sets of assumptions. One strand of this literature has developed methods for estimating average treatment effects for a binary treatment under assumptions variously described as exogen ..."

Qualitative Planning under Assumptions: A Preliminary Report
- In Proceedings of the AAAI Spring Symposium on Decision-Theoretic Planning
, 1994
"... Most planners constructed up to now are qualitative: they deal with uncertainty by considering all possible outcomes of each plan, without quantifying their relative likelihood. They then choose a plan that deals with the worstcase scenario. However, it is clearly infeasible to plan for every possib ..."

that certain contingencies are impossible. In this paper, we analyze the paradigm of qualitative planning under assumptions, using decision-theoretic tools. We present conditions that guarantee the existence of optimal assumptions (ones inducing the agent to choose the plan with maximum expected utility
Option pricing when underlying stock returns are discontinuous

, 1976
"... The validity of the classic Black-Scholes option pricing formula dcpcnds on the capability of investors to follow a dynamic portfolio strategy in the stock that replicates the payoff structure to the option. The critical assumption required for such a strategy to be feasible, is that the underlying ..."

On the optimality of the simple Bayesian classifier under zero-one loss
- MACHINE LEARNING
, 1997
"... The simple Bayesian classifier is known to be optimal when attributes are independent given the class, but the question of whether other sufficient conditions for its optimality exist has so far not been explored. Empirical results showing that it performs surprisingly well in many domains containin ..."

containing clear attribute dependences suggest that the answer to this question may be positive. This article shows that, although the Bayesian classifier’s probability estimates are only optimal under quadratic loss if the independence assumption holds, the classifier itself can be optimal under zero

V.: Efficient SAT solving under assumptions
- In: Proc. SAT’12. (2012
"... Abstract. In incremental SAT solving, assumptions are propositions that hold solely for one specific invocation of the solver. Effective prop-agation of assumptions is vital for ensuring SAT solving efficiency in a variety of applications. We propose algorithms to handle assumptions. In our approach ..."

The English Noun Phrase in its Sentential Aspect
