The objective of this paper is two-fold. The first is to develop a methodology capable of extracting the Human Values Scale (HVS) from the user, with reference to his/her objective...
Feature-oriented programming organizes programs around features rather than objects, thus better supporting extensible, product-line architectures. Programming languages increasin...
Obtaining performance models, like Markov chains and queueing networks, for systems of significant complexity and magnitude is a difficult task that is usually tackled using human...
Planning in partially-observable dynamical systems (such as POMDPs and PSRs) is a computationally challenging task. Popular approximation techniques that have proved successful ar...
