Rational and Convergent Learning in Stochastic Games
This paper investigates the problem of policy learning in multiagent environments using the stochastic game framework, which we briefly overview. We introduce two properties as de...

Symbolic Dynamic Programming for First-Order MDPs
We present a dynamic programming approach for the solution of first-order Markov decisions processes. This technique uses an MDP whose dynamics is represented in a variant of the ...

Integrating Expectations from Different Sources to Help End Users Acquire Procedural Knowledge
Role-limiting approaches using explicit theories of problem-solving have been successful for acquiring knowledge from domain experts1 . However most systems using this approach do...

Refining the Basic Constraint Propagation Algorithm
Constraint propagation is the main feature of any constraint solver. This is thus of prime importance to manage constraint propagation as efficiently as possible, justifying the us...

Weakening Conflicting Information for Iterated Revision and Knowledge Integration
The ability to handle exceptions, to perform iterated belief revision and to integrate information from multiple sources are essential skills for an intelligent agent. These impor...

Learning Iterative Image Reconstruction
Successful image reconstruction requires the recognition of a scene and the generation of a clean image of that scene. We propose to use recurrent neural networks for both analysi...

Backtracking Through Biconnected Components of a Constraint Graph
The algorithm presented here, BCC, is an enhancement of the well known Backtrack used to solve constraint satisfaction problems. Though most backtrack improvements rely on propaga...
