We are concerned with a multivariate response regression problem where the interest is in considering correlations both across response variates and across response samples. In this paper we develop a new Bayesian nonparametric model for such a setting based on Dirichlet process priors. Building on an additive kernel model, we allow each sample to have its own regression matrix. Although this overcomplete representation could in principle suffer from severe overfitting problems, we are able to provide effective control […]

arXiv:2601.02384v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The development of the digital economy has established e-commerce platforms as the primary space for commercial transactions for the Muslim community. However, innovations in features and business models on these platforms have gave rise to Sharia issues that cannot be fully explained through conventional Fiqh Muamalah contract frameworks. This research aims to examine the compliance of transaction practices in e-commerce with Sharia principles, particularly in the six most frequently used transaction forms, namely […]

With the goal to generate more scalable algorithms with higher efficiency and fewer open parameters, reinforcement learning (RL) has recently moved towards combining classical techniques from optimal control and dynamic programming with modern learning techniques from statistical estimation theory. In this vein, this paper suggests to use the framework of stochastic optimal control with path integrals to derive a novel approach to RL with parametrized policies. While solidly grounded in value function estimation and optimal control based on […]
