Temporal difference reinforcement learning algorithms are perfectly suited to autonomous agents because they learn directly from an agent’s experience based on sequential actio...
Intelligent planning algorithms such as the Partially Observable Markov Decision Process (POMDP) have succeeded in dialog management applications [10, 11, 12] because of their rob...
Peer Data Management Systems (PDMSs) have been introduced as a solution to the problem of large-scale sharing of semantically rich data. A PDMS consists of semantic peers connecte...
Link-translating proxies are widely used for anonymous browsing, policy circumvention and WebVPN functions. These are implemented by encoding the destination URL in the path of th...
We study the problem of navigating through a database of similar objects using comparisons. This problem is known to be strongly related to the small-world network design problem....
