A novel action-dependent adaptive critic design (ACD) is developed for dynamic optimization. The proposed combination of a particle swarm optimization-based actor and a neural network critic is demonstrated through dynamic sleep scheduling of wireless sensor motes for wildlife monitoring. The objective of the sleep scheduler is to dynamically adapt the sleep duration to node's battery capacity ...

A quantum walk places a traverser into a superposition of both graph location and traversal “spin.” The walk is defined by an initial condition, an evolution determined by a unitary coin/shiftoperator, and a measurement based on the sampling of the probability distribution generated from the quantum wavefunction. Simple quantum walks are studied analytically, but for large graph structures with...

In the context of fuzzy control, antecedent parameters are used to provide a segmentation of the state space so that different regions can be modeled appropriately. In Adaptive Critic methodologies, two modules (the critic and the controller) must properly segment the state space to insure good performance. In this paper, we explore the effects of tuning antecedent parameters that are shared be...

the analyzing methods of texts and their rendering are diverse and wide spread. this diversity spreads according to the renderers’ approach and viewpoint to premises and intellectual ‚ scientific and literary issues and to the extent of their  skill and knowledge in their specialized learning's . therefore they survey there issues from their viewpoints and trainings from this aspect we gra...
