Pathologies of temporal difference methods in approximate dynamic programming
Approximate policy iteration methods based on temporal differences are popular in practice, and have been tested extensively, dating to the early nineties, but the associated conve...

On Flexible Body Approximations of Rigid Body Dynamics
This paper demonstrates that techniques in flexible body dynamics can yield surprising results when applied to rigid bodies. The discussion presents a technique for constructing r...

A dynamic data structure for approximate range searching
In this paper, we introduce a simple, randomized dynamic data structure for storing multidimensional point sets, called a quadtreap. This data structure is a randomized, balanced ...

Spatially embedded dynamics and complexity
To gain a deeper understanding of the impact of spatial embedding on the dynamics of complex systems we employ a measure of interaction complexity developed within neuroscience us...
