We consider complex scheduling problems that can be captured as optimization under hard and soft constraints. The objective of such an optimization problem is to satisfy as many h...
Abstract—Recently, two complementary approaches are proposed to represent, model and analyze laws: the Nomos and VLPM approaches. Nomos is a goal-oriented approach to effectively...
—This research aims to enable robots to learn from human teachers. Motivated by human social learning, we believe that a transparent learning process can help guide the human tea...
