Multi-stage programming (MSP) is a paradigm for developing generic software that does not pay a runtime penalty for this generality. This is achieved through concise, carefully-des...
Coordinating agents in a complex environment is a hard problem, but it can become even harder when certain characteristics of the tasks, like the required number of agents, are un...
Researchers in the eld of Distributed Arti cial Intelligence (DAI) have been developing e cient mechanisms to coordinate the activities of multiple autonomous agents. The need for...
We target the problem of closed-loop learning of control policies that map visual percepts to continuous actions. Our algorithm, called Reinforcement Learning of Joint Classes (RLJ...
