16-899C ACRL Tetris Reinforcement Learner

Our approach to this problem was to use reinforcement learning with a function approximator to approximate the state value function [RSS98]. In our case, a +1 reward was given for every completed line, so that the value function would encode the long-term number of lines that is going to be completed by the algorithm. In order to achieve this, we extract features from the game state, and use gr...

Oregon Dot

Traffic-monitoring systems, such as those using loop detectors, are prone to coverage gaps, arising from sensor noise, processing errors and transmission problems. Such gaps adversely affect the accuracy of Advanced Traveler Information Systems. This project will explore models based on historical data that can provide estimates to fill such gaps. We build on an initial study by Mr. Rafael J. F...

Lung cancer in Oregon.

Factors thought to be related to lung cancer include smoking, radon, and educational attainment. These factors were analyzed in the present ecological study for Oregon with correlation and linear regression statistics. A moderate, inverse, and statistically significant correlation was found with educational attainment while surprisingly, negligible and statistically insignificant correlations w...
