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...

Reducing Local Optima in Single-Objective Problems by Multi-objectivization
One common characterization of how simple hill-climbing optimization methods can fail is that they become trapped in local optima - a state where no small modi cation of the curren...
