It is proved that this class of mappings is a proper subset of the class of starlike mappings and contains the class of convex mappings properly, and it has the same growth and covering theorems as the convex mappings. Furthermore, when the Banach space is confined to ?n, the “quasi-convex mapping” is exactly the “quasi-convex mapping of type A” introduced by K. A. Roper and T. J. Suffridge.展开更多

The space X is said to have a ball-covering property, if it admits a ball-covering consisting of countably many balls. This paper, by constructing the equivalent norms on l~∞, shows that ball-covering property is not invariant under isomorphic mappings, though it is preserved under such mappings if X is a Gateaux differentiability space; presents that this property of X is not heritable by its closed subspaces; and the property is also not preserved under quotient mappings.展开更多

The target is the error analysis for the regression problem in learning theory. A regularization scheme is given, which yields sharp learning rates. The rates depend on the dimension of polynomial space and polynomial reproducing kernel Hilbert space measured by covering numbers. Meanwhile, we also establish the direct approximation theorem by Bernstein-Durrmeyer operators in $ L_{\rho _X }^2 $ with Borel probability measure.展开更多

The notion of the covering number, a metric of capturing the search space size of a POMDP planning problem, has been proposed as a complexity measure of approximate POMDP planning. Existing theoretical results are based on POMDPs with finite and discrete state spaces and measured in the l1- metric space. When considering heuristics, they are assumed to be always admissible. This paper extends the theoretical results on the covering numbers of different search spaces, including the newly defined space reachable under inadmissible heuristics, to the ln-metric spaces. We provide a simple but scalable algorithm for estimating covering numbers. Experimentally, we provide estimated covering numbers of the search spaces reachable by following different policies on several benchmark problems, and analyze their abilities to predict the runtime of POMDP planning algorithms.展开更多
