IMPULSE CONTROL IN PIGEONS1

Impulse control in pigeons.

Pigeons were given a small, immediate food reinforcement for pecking a key, and a larger, delayed reinforcement for not pecking this key. Most subjects pecked the key on more than 95% of trials. However, when pecking a differently colored key at an earlier time prevented this option from becoming available, three of 10 subjects consistently pecked it, thereby forcing themselves to wait for the ...

emittance control in high power linacs

چکیده این پایان نامه به بررسی اثر سیم پیچ مغناطیسی و کاوه یِ خوشه گر با بسامد رادیویی بر هاله و بیرونگراییِ باریکه هایِ پیوسته و خوشه ایِ ذرات باردار در شتابدهنده های خطیِ یونی، پروتونی با جریان بالا می پردازد و راه حل هایی برای بهینه نگهداشتن این کمیتها ارایه می دهد. بیرونگرایی یکی از کمیتهای اساسی باریکه هایِ ذرات باردار در شتابدهنده ها است که تاثیر قابل توجهی بر قیمت، هزینه و کاراییِ هر شتابدهند...

Impulse Control in Kalman - like Filtering Problems

This paper develops the impulse control approach to the observation process in Kalman-like filtering problems, which is based on impulsive model-ing of the transition matrix in an observation equation. The impulse control generates the jumps of the estimate variance from its current position down to zero and, as a result, enables us to obtain the filtering equations for the Kalman estimate with...
