This paper presents a direct reinforcement learning algorithm, called Finite-Element Reinforcement Learning, in the continuous case, i.e. continuous state-space and time. The eval...
The problem of absolute stability is one of the oldest open problems in the theory of control. Even for the particular case of second-order systems a complete solution was present...
We present an application of a multi-agent cooperative search approach to the problem of optimizing gas pipeline operations, i.e. finding control parameters for a gas transmission...
In this paper we study, for the first time explicitly, the implications of endowing an interested party (i.e. a teacher) with the ability to modify the underlying dynamics of the ...

Designing efficient sorting networks has been a challenging combinatorial optimization problem since the early 1960’s. The application of evolutionary computing to this problem ...
