Abstract. Mobile ad-hoc networks (MANETs) utilize broadcast channels, where wireless transmissions occur from one user to many others. In a broadcast channel the same transmission ...
Dynamic Bayesian networks are structured representations of stochastic processes. Despite their structure, exact inference in DBNs is generally intractable. One approach to approx...
Latent topic models have been successfully applied as an unsupervised topic discovery technique in large document collections. With the proliferation of hypertext document collect...
Reactive planning using assumptions is a well-known approach to tackle complex planning problems for nondeterministic, partially observable domains. However, assumptions may be wr...
We study how to find plans that maximize the expected total utility for a given MDP, a planning objective that is important for decision making in high-stakes domains. The optimal...
