Estimating the selectivity of queries is a crucial problem in database systems. Virtually all database systems rely on the use of selectivity estimates to choose amongst the many ...
We describe a generalized Q-learning type algorithm for reinforcement learning in competitive multi-agent games. We make the observation that in a competitive setting with adaptive...
