Scaling ant colony optimization with hierarchical reinforcement learning partitioning
This paper merges hierarchical reinforcement learning (HRL) with ant colony optimization (ACO) to produce a HRL ACO algorithm capable of generating solutions for large domains. Th...

A Convergent Reinforcement Learning Algorithm in the Continuous Case: The Finite-Element Reinforcement Learning
This paper presents a direct reinforcement learning algorithm, called Finite-Element Reinforcement Learning, in the continuous case, i.e. continuous state-space and time. The eval...

Lattice computations for random numbers
We improve on a lattice algorithm of Tezuka for the computation of the k-distribution of a class of random number generators based on finite fields. We show how this is applied to ...

How generative encodings fare on less regular problems
Generative representations allow the reuse of code and thus facilitate the evolution of repeated phenotypic themes or modules. It has been shown that generative representations pe...

Crew Assignment via Constraint Programming: Integrating Column Generation and Heuristic Tree Search
The Airline Crew Assignment Problem (ACA) consists of assigning lines of work to a set of crew members such that a set of activities is partitioned and the costs for that assignmen...
