One of the implicit assumptions of multi-modal interfaces is that human-computer interaction is significantly facilitated by providing multiple input and output modalities. Surpri...
Decentralized Markov decision processes are frequently used to model cooperative multi-agent systems. In this paper, we identify a subclass of general DEC-MDPs that features regul...
This paper discusses the design of a physical and digital system intended to allow for easy manipulation and interaction with the tremendous amount of options present in advanced ...
