Efficient and robust routing is central to wireless sensor networks (WSN) that feature energy-constrained nodes, unreliable links, and frequent topology change. While most existi...
Reinforcement learning (RL) algorithms attempt to assign the credit for rewards to the actions that contributed to the reward. Thus far, credit assignment has been done in one of t...
Recently a new generation of virtual worlds has emerged in which users are provided with open-ended modelling tools with which they can create and modify world content. The result...
