We provide a novel view of learning an approximate model of a partially observable environment from data and present a simple implemenf the idea. The learned model abstracts away ...
— We consider the problem of path planning above a polyhedral terrain and present a new algorithm that for any p ≥ 1, computes a (c + ε)-approximation to the Lp-shortest path ...
Let P be a combinatorial optimization problem, and let A be an approximation algorithm for P. The domination ratio domr(A, s) is the maximal real q such that the solution x(I) obt...
Reinforcement learning promises a generic method for adapting agents to arbitrary tasks in arbitrary stochastic environments, but applying it to new real-world problems remains di...
d Abstract) Sara Ahmadian∗ Chaitanya Swamy∗ We consider the lower-bounded facility location (LBFL) problem (also sometimes called load-balanced facility location), which is a ...
