A merger is a probabilistic procedure which extracts the randomness out of any (arbitrarily correlated) set of random variables, as long as one of them is uniform. Our main result...
— A novel criterion is introduced for assessing the diversity of a collection of paths or trajectories. The main idea is the notion of survivability, which measures the likelihoo...
A model-free, case-based learning and control algorithm called S-learning is described as implemented in a simulation of a light-seeking mobile robot. S-learning demonstrated learn...
