In many prediction problems, it is not uncommon that the number of variables used to construct a forecast is of the same order of magnitude as the sample size, if not larger. We then face the problem of constructing a prediction in the…

Optimal experimental design (OED) concerns itself with identifying ideal methods of data collection, e.g.~via sensor placement. The \emph{greedy algorithm}, that is, placing one sensor at a time, in an iteratively optimal manner, stands as…
