We apply CMA-ES, an evolution strategy with covariance matrix adaptation, and TDL (Temporal Difference Learning) to reinforcement learning tasks. In both cases these algorithms se...
A major requirement in Software Engineering is to reduce the time to market. This requirement along with a demand for product sophistication and better quality has led to larger te...
There is an ongoing debate about how to improve the quality of empirical research efforts in information systems. One of the persistent issues within the debate concerns the relat...
When designing computer systems, simulation tools are used to imitate a real or proposed system. Complex, dynamic systems can be simulated without the cost and time constraints in...
This paper describes work to enhance a sentencebased summarizer with notions of salience, dynamicallyadjustable summary size, discourse segmentation, and awareness of topic shifts...
