How to write four million lines of Python: Lessons from Dropbox on using the programming language at scale Your email has been sent While Python is a hugely popular programming language it has ...

The curse of dimensionality gives rise to prohibitive computational requirements that render infeasible the exact solution of large-scale stochastic control problems. We study an efficient method ...

This paper shows how an operational method for solving dynamic programs can be used, in some cases, to solve the problem of maximizing a firm's market value. The problem is formulated as a Markov ...

Dynamic programming (DP) algorithms have become indispensable in computational biology, addressing problems that range from sequence alignment and phylogenetic inference to RNA secondary structure ...
