In the multi-armed bandit (MAB) problem there are k distributions associated with the rewards of playing each of k strategies (slot machine arms). The reward distributions are ini...
Simulation modeling can be highly effective for solving problems found in the food, beverage, consumer products, and pharmaceutical industries. The flow of material or fluid in th...
Different formal learning models address different aspects of learning. Below we compare learning via queries—interpreting learning as a one-shot process in which the learner i...
Dynamic programming provides a methodology to develop planners and controllers for nonlinear systems. However, general dynamic programming is computationally intractable. We have ...
