Abstract:

Let X = (X1,...,Xn) be a random binary vector, with a known joint distribution P. It is necessary to inspect the coordinates sequentially in order to determine if Xi = 0 for every i, i = 1,..., n. We find bounds for the ratio of the expected number of coordinates inspected using optimal and greedy searching policies.
