Random Walks

…gaps, which control how rapidly random walks explore a structure. The talk describes a polynomial method that proves optimality in new settings and connects these developments to longstanding questions about the prevalence of optimal gaps.

…direction by noise generated by Random Walks (RDW) or Independent and Identically Distributed (IID) noise. In the Experiment, participants (n = 28) extrapolated if a moving point would end right or left of the screen’s center. We modeled path extrapolation using a three-parameter Random Sampling Model (RSM), and a Multi-Layer Perceptron (MLP). Statistically, for RDW paths, the optimal extrapolation strategy is to use the last visible position, whereas fo
