Partially Observable Markov Decision Processes (POMDPs) have succeeded in planning domains that require balancing actions that increase an agent's knowledge and actions that ...
A family of probabilistic time series models is developed to analyze the time evolution of topics in large document collections. The approach is to use state space models on the n...
Rich representations in reinforcement learning have been studied for the purpose of enabling generalization and making learning feasible in large state spaces. We introduce Object...
Robert Rosen’s central theorem states that organisms are fundamentally different to machines, mainly because they are ‘‘closed with respect to effcient causation.’’ The p...
The results of the latest International Probabilistic Planning Competition (IPPC-2008) indicate that the presence of dead ends, states with no trajectory to the goal, makes MDPs h...
