This book presents a coherent and unified treatment of probabilistic techniques for obtaining high probability estimates on the performance of randomized algorithms. It covers the basic toolkit from the Chernoff-Hoeffding bounds to more sophisticated techniques like martingales and isoperimetric inequalities, as well as some recent developments like Talagrand's inequality, transportation cost inequalities and log-Sobolev inequalities. Along the way, variations on the basic theme are examined, such as Chernoff-Hoeffding bounds in dependent settings. The authors emphasise comparative study of the different methods, highlighting respective strengths and weaknesses in concrete example applications. The exposition is tailored to discrete settings sufficient for the analysis of algorithms, avoiding unnecessary measure-theoretic details, thus making the book accessible to computer scientists as well as probabilists and discrete mathematicians.Random variablesDistribution (Probability theory)Limit theorems (Probability theory)AlgorithmsRandom variables.Distribution (Probability theory)Limit theorems (Probability theory)Algorithms.518/.1Dubhashi Devdatt1032905Panconesi AlessandroUkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK9910454552903321Concentration of measure for the analysis of randomized algorithms2451057UNINA01564oam 2200445Ia 450 991069881890332120100302090533.0(CKB)5470000002397680(OCoLC)429644983(OCoLC)995470000002397680(EXLCZ)99547000000239768020090807d2009 ua 0engurmn|||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierAmended reregistration eligibility decision (RED) for chloropicrin[electronic resource][Washington, D.C.] :U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Prevention, Pesticides and Toxic Substances,[2009]1 online resource (197 pages) illustrationsTitle from title screen (viewed Aug. 7, 2009)."May 2009."Includes bibliographical references.Amended reregistration eligibility decision PesticidesRisk assessmentPesticidesRisk managementChloropicrinFumigantsPesticidesRisk assessment.PesticidesRisk management.Chloropicrin.Fumigants.United States.Environmental Protection Agency.Prevention, Pesticides, and Toxic Substances.GPOGPOGPOBOOK9910698818903321Amended reregistration eligibility decision (RED) for chloropicrin3209449UNINA
