Simulation of a pen-and-ink illustration style in a realtime rendering system is a challenging computer graphics problem. Tonal art maps (TAMs) were recently suggested as a soluti...
Muhiagent systems (MAS) can "go down" for a large number of reasons, ranging from system malfunctions and power failures to malicious attacks. The placement of agents on...
This paper introduces the Point-Based Value Iteration (PBVI) algorithm for POMDP planning. PBVI approximates an exact value iteration solution by selecting a small set of represen...
