Improved Algorithms via Approximations of Probability Distributions
We present two techniques for constructing sample spaces that approximate probability distributions. The first is a simple method for constructing the small-bias probability spaces introduced by Naor and Naor. We show how to efficiently combine this construction with the method of conditional probabilities to yield improved parallel algorithms for problems such as set discrepancy, finding large...
متن کاملCharacterizations of Probability Distributions via Bivariate Regression of Record Values
Bairamov et al. (2005) characterize the exponential distribution in terms of the regression of a function of a record value with its adjacent record values as covariates. We extend these results to the case of nonadjacent covariates. We also consider a more general setting involving monotone transformations. As special cases, we present characterizations involving weighted arithmetic, geometric...
متن کاملExtended Polynomial Dimensional Decomposition for Arbitrary Probability Distributions
This paper presents an extended polynomial dimensional decomposition method for solving stochastic problems subject to independent random input following an arbitrary probability distribution. The method involves Fourier-polynomial expansions of component functions by orthogonal polynomial bases, the Stieltjes procedure for generating the recursion coefficients of orthogonal polynomials and the...

We present two techniques for approximating probability distributions. The rst is a simple method for constructing the small-bias probability spaces introduced by Naor & Naor. We show how to e ciently combine this construction with the method of conditional probabilities to yield improved NC algorithms for many problems such as set discrepancy, nding large cuts in graphs, nding large acyclic su...
متن کاملA Note on Approximations to Discrete Probability Distributions
An iterative method is presented which gives an optimum approximation to the joint probability distribution of a set of binary variables given the joiat probability distributions of any subsets of the variables (any set of component distributions). The most significant feature of this approximation procedure is that there is no limitation to the number or type of component distributions that ca...
