The goal of Reinforcement learning (RL) is to maximize reward (minimize cost) in a Markov decision process (MDP) without knowing the underlying model a priori. RL algorithms tend ...
We study the combinatorial auction (CA) problem, in which m objects are sold to rational agents and the goal is to maximize social welfare. Of particular interest is the special ca...
Gaussian Mixture Model (GMM) is one of the most popular data clustering methods which can be viewed as a linear combination of different Gaussian components. In GMM, each cluster ...
We describe an innovative solution to the problem of scheduling astronomy observations for the Stratospheric Observatory for Infrared Astronomy, an airborne observatory. The probl...
In this paper we propose a model for human learning and decision making in environments of repeated Cliff-Edge (CE) interactions. In CE environments, which include common daily in...
