We consider an agent who has to repeatedly make choices in an uncertain and changing environment, who has full information of the past, who discounts future payoffs, but who has no prior. We provide a learning algorithm that performs almost as well as the best of a given finite number of experts...

In this paper we consider experimental situations in which m 2-level factors are to be studied using a main effects plan where n runs are partitioned into b block of size k. For the case n≡3 (mod 4), we establish some sufficient conditions for a design to be E-optimal and then give a method...

In this paper the estimation problem and the problem of designing experiments in a nonlinear regression model, used in microbiology, are studied. The model is called Monod model, defined imlicitly by a differential equation for the regression function and has numerous applications in microbial...

This paper considers a life test under progressive type I group censoring with a Weibull failure time distribution. The maximum likelihood method is used to derive the estimators of the parameters of the failure time distribution. In practice, several variables, such as the number of test units,...
