This paper investigates the problem of automatically learning how to restructure the reward function of a Markov decision process so as to speed up reinforcement learning. We begi...
Abstract Real-time simulation of deformable objects involves many computational challenges to be solved, particularly in the context of haptic applications, where high update rates...
This paper reports on an approach which maps documents onto an ontology-based information space in order to provide support for machine-mediated communication. First, a composite ...
—Network protocols have traditionally been designed using a layered method in part because it is easier to implement some portions of network protocols in software and other port...
