We publish the best academic work (that's too often lost to peer reviews & the TA's desk) to the global tech community ...

Algorithm design and scientific discovery often demand a meticulous cycle of exploration, hypothesis testing, refinement, and validation. Traditionally, these processes rely heavily on expert ...

We study the greedy (exploitation-only) algorithm in bandit problems with a known reward structure. We allow arbitrary finite reward structures, while prior work focused on a few specific ones. We ...

This repository provides an implementation of a compression algorithm of this type, the Huffman algorithm. This algorithm is implemented in the Python programming language.

ASCII files can be compressed to smaller sizes by using variable length Huffman Coding. By analyzing the different probabilities of the various symbols that occur in a given file, we can build a ...
