First an integral representation of a continuous linear functional dominated by a support function in integral form is given (Theorem 1). From this the theorem of Blackwell-Stein-Sherman-Cartier [2], ...

Hidden Markov models (HMMs) are a formal foundation for making probabilistic models of linear sequence 'labeling' problems 1,2. They provide a conceptual toolkit for building complex models just by ...

We draw attention to some important nonlinear equations commonly arising in applied probability, review some known techniques to compute their minimal nonnegative solutions, propose improved iterative ...
