Abstract--In the bounded-storage model (BSM) for information-theoretic secure encryption and key agreement, one makes use of a random string R whose length t is greater than the as...
— This paper presents Pirrus, a replica management system that addresses the problem of providing data availability on a wireless sensor network. Pirrus uses probabilistic failur...
Abstract. Feature selection in reinforcement learning (RL), i.e. choosing basis functions such that useful approximations of the unkown value function can be obtained, is one of th...
