—Large scale production grids are an important case for autonomic computing. They follow a mutualization paradigm: decision-making (human or automatic) is distributed and largely...
To cope with large scale, agents are usually organized in a network such that an agent interacts only with its immediate neighbors in the network. Reinforcement learning technique...
Abstract a paradigm of modern Machine Learning (ML) which uses rewards and punishments to guide the learning process. One of the central ideas of RL is learning by “direct-online...
Abstract. Acquiring adaptation knowledge for case-based reasoning systems is a challenging problem. Such knowledge is typically elicited from domain experts or extracted from the c...
In this paper we present an approach for reducing the memory footprint requirement of temporal difference methods in which the set of states is finite. We use case-based generaliza...
