Minimization of an M-convex Function
M-convex functions, introduced by Murota (1996, 1998), enjoy various desirable properties as “discrete convex functions.” In this paper, we propose two new polynomial-time sca...

Global Versus Local Constructive Function Approximation for On-Line Reinforcement Learning
: In order to scale to problems with large or continuous state-spaces, reinforcement learning algorithms need to be combined with function approximation techniques. The majority of...

Job-Shop Scheduling Using Timed Automata
In this paper we show how the classical job-shop scheduling problem can be modeled as a special class of acyclic timed automata. Finding an optimal schedule corresponds, then, to n...
