R-max is a very simple model-based reinforcement learning algorithm which can attain near-optimal average reward in polynomial time. In R-max, the agent always maintains a complet...
The n-step delayed sharing information structure is investigated. This information structure comprises of K controllers that share their information with a delay of n time steps. ...
Recent technology advances have enabled mediated query processing with Internet accessible WebSources. A characteristic of WebSources is that their access costs exhibit transient ...
The performance of Kriging interpolation for enhancement, smoothing, reconstruction and optimization of a test data set is investigated. Specifically, the ordinary twodimensional ...
