Multi-Value-Functions: E cient Automatic Action Hierarchies for Multiple Goal MDPs

If you have planned to achieve one particular goal in a stochastic delayed rewards problem and then someone asks about a di erent goal what should you do? What if you need to be ready to quickly supply an answer for any possible goal? This paper shows that by using a new kind of automatically generated abstract action hierarchy that with N states, preparing for all of N possible goals can be mu...

Multi-level Association Rule Mining: an Object-oriented Approach Based on Dynamic Hierarchies

Previous studies in data mining have yielded e cient algorithms for discovering association rules. But it is well-known problem that the two controlling measures of support and con dence, when used as the sole de nition of relevant association rules, are too inclusive | interesting rules are included with many uninteresting cases. A typical approach to this problem is to augment the thresholds ...

cient Call by value Evaluation Strategy of Primitive Recursive Program Schemes

We consider primitive recursive program schemes with parameters together with the call by value computation rule The schemes are nite systems of functions which are de ned by primitive or structural recursion simultaneous recursion and nesting of function calls is allowed We present a transformation strategy which replaces primitive recursion by iteration The transformation strategy which is fu...

An interactive weighted fuzzy goal programming technique to solve multi-objective reliability optimization problem

This paper presents an application of interactive fuzzy goal programming to the nonlinear multi-objective reliability optimization problem considering system reliability and cost of the system as objective functions. As the decision maker always have an intention to produce highly reliable system with minimum cost, therefore, we introduce the interactive method to design a high productivity sys...
