Sentence examples for upper confidence bounds from inspiring English sources

This strategy relies on Kriging meta-modeling and manages to achieve sharp upper confidence bounds on the rare events probabilities.

In order to derive upper confidence bounds we need only estimates of the upper tail (see [2]).

To strategically search the tree, we use an optimization algorithm called Upper Confidence Bounds Applied to Trees (UCT) [11], [12].

Lower and upper confidence bounds were obtained from the sample distribution of costs at the 2.5% and 97.5% quantiles, respectively.

95% confidence intervals were generated by sorting these parameters and taking the 2.5th and 97.5th percentiles as respectively lower and upper confidence bounds.

Also for the 1996 birth cohort (32 cases) and the 1996/1997 birth cohort (25 cases) the differences between the K-functions of cases and controls are well above the upper confidence bounds, indicating strong spatial clustering of BSE cases for these birth cohorts.

We define the upper confidence bound algorithm indexes in each channel as [24] B_{j}(t) = overline{X}_{j}(t) +A_{j}(t).

We design techniques applicable in principle to any bandit algorithm capable of exploiting these two properties, and we apply them to Upper Confidence Bound policies both in stationary and nonstationary environments.

Despite these limitations, the precision of the genetic estimate is comparable to that of traditional nest count estimates used to evaluate ape population size, for which 95% confidence interval widths (from lower to upper confidence bound) of 40% to 63% of the estimate are reported [14], [15].

In this model, the confidence interval of observed values of LD measured by D' was estimated to determine the upper and lower confidence bounds of D' (5% tails of the overall probability distribution of D'), and the blocking structure was determined by defining SNP pairs to be in "strong LD" if the upper confidence bound was above 0.98 and the lower bound was above 0.7 [ 27].

We propose two upper-confidence-bound algorithms called UCB-SI1 and UCB-SI2 to tackle this new problem in discrete-armed bandit and continuum-armed bandit setting respectively.
