We study the problem of local search on a graph. Given a real-valued black-box function f on the graph's vertices, this is the problem of determining a local minimum of f--a v...
Norms represent what ought to be done, and their fulfillment can be seen as benefiting the overall system, society or organisation. However, individual agent goals (desire) may con...
This paper describes a physics-based semi-analytical model for Schottky-barrier carbon nanotube (CNT) and graphene nanoribbon (GNR) transistors. The model includes the treatment o...

In reinforcement learning, least-squares temporal difference methods (e.g., LSTD and LSPI) are effective, data-efficient techniques for policy evaluation and control with linear v...
