— Providing delay guarantees to time-sensitive traffic in future wireless multimedia networks is a challenging issue. This is due to the time-varying link capacities and the vari...
This paper focuses on the production scheduling in MEMS (Micro-Electro Mechanical System) manufacturing. The whole MEMS production process can be organized into 3 sub-processes, i...
In the model-based policy search approach to reinforcement learning (RL), policies are found using a model (or "simulator") of the Markov decision process. However, for ...
