A symbolic model approach to the digital control of nonlinear time-delay systems
— In this paper we propose an approach to control design of nonlinear time–delay systems, which is based on the construction of symbolic models, where each symbolic state and e...

Reinforcement learning of a simple control task using the spike response model
In this work, we propose a variation of a direct reinforcement learning algorithm, suitable for usage with spiking neurons based on the spike response model (SRM). The SRM is a bi...

A Sparse Sampling Algorithm for Near-Optimal Planning in Large Markov Decision Processes
An issue that is critical for the application of Markov decision processes MDPs to realistic problems is how the complexity of planning scales with the size of the MDP. In stochas...
