The behavior of a complex system often depends on parameters whose values are unknown in advance. To operate effectively, an autonomous agent must actively gather information on t...

Relational Markov Decision Processes (MDP) are a useraction for stochastic planning problems since one can develop abstract solutions for them that are independent of domain size ...
Embedded systems consisting of collaborating agents capable of interacting with their environment are becoming ubiquitous. It is crucial for these systems to be able to adapt to t...
Model-driven development is the process of creating models of a software system and transforming them into source code. Since the stepwise transformations can be done automaticall...
We present a “black-box” approach to estimating query cardinality that has no knowledge of query execution plans and data distribution, yet provides accurate estimates. It doe...
