In this paper we consider sampling based fitted value iteration for discounted, large (possibly infinite) state space, finite action Markovian Decision Problems where only a gener...
Existing SQL aggregate functions present important limitations to compute percentages. This article proposes two SQL aggregate functions to compute percentages addressing such lim...
This paper reveals a duality between constructions of two basic cryptographic primitives, pseudo-random string generators and one-way hash functions. Applying the duality, we pres...
We describe a collision-finding attack on 16 rounds of the Tiger hash function requiring the time for about 244 compression function invocations. Another attack generates pseudo-ne...
Several reinforcement-learning techniques have already been applied to the Acrobot control problem, using linear function approximators to estimate the value function. In this pape...
