In this paper we consider the problem of scheduling n jobs on a single machine, where the jobs are processed in batches and the processing time of each job is a step function depe...

Abstract: Probabilistically constrained problems, in which the random variables are finitely distributed, are nonconvex in general and hard to solve. The p-efficiency concept has b...
Some of the most successful recent applications of reinforcement learning have used neural networks and the TD algorithm to learn evaluation functions. In this paper, we examine t...
