We analyze the asymptotic behavior of agents engaged in an infinite horizon partially observable stochastic game as formalized by the interactive POMDP framework. We show that when agents’ initial beliefs satisfy a truth compatibility condition, their behavior converges to a subjective ǫ-equilibrium in a finite time, and subjective equilibrium in the limit. This result is a generalization of a ...

Partially observable planning is one of the most general and useful models for dealing with complex problems. In recent years there have been significant progress on the development of planners for deterministic models that offer strong theoretical guarantees over certain subclasses of tasks. These guarantees however are difficult to establish as they often involve reasoning about features that...

We retrospectively studied the postoperative results in nine patients with corneal scarring due to herpes zoster ophthalmicus who underwent penetrating keratoplasty. This was a highly selected group that satisfied all of the following criteria: (a) absence of active disease of the ocular surface and eyelids, (b) intraocular pressure under control, and (c) absence of active keratouveitis. Penetr...

The effect of corneal edema and the effect of penetrating keratoplasty upon the accuracy of electronic applanation tonometry were studied in rabbits. Pressure readings made directly from cannulas in the anterior chamber correlated well with those made by electronic applanation tonometry both in severe corneal edema and 24 hours after penetrating keratoplasty. The advantages of electronic applan...

Introduction: Penetrating cardiac injuries generally occur secondary to gunshot or stab wounds and have a high mortality rate. They are rare and often fatal in children. When a foreign object penetrates the myocardium, it is dangerous to remove it, suddenly, and should be removed gradually to prevent excessive bleeding. Case report: We report a case of an unusual penetrating cardiac injury in a...

In this paper, modeling of high speed projectiles with different nose shapes, penetrating into steel fiber reinforced concrete is investigated. This is a novel study because it considers the length to diameter ratio of steel fiber as well as projectile length to diameter ratio and volume fraction of fiber used in concrete matrix on the impact resistance of steel fiber reinforced concrete fibers...

A large-scale trial embankment provided with partially penetrating prefabricated vertical drains (PVD) was installed in consolidating marine clay deposits at East-Port said industrial zone project Egypt. The constructed a bottom area of 150x150m and height 5.5m to evaluate the efficiency improvement system verify design parameters. An intensive instrumentation built-up including shallow settlem...

RATIONALE Penetrating astigmatic keratotomy (penetrating AK) is a well-known method to correct corneal astigmatism but rarely be performed nowadays. This article reevaluated the clinical effectiveness and confounding factors of penetrating AK. PATIENT CONCERNS Penetrating AK has been introduced to serve as one alternative operation for astigmatism correction, and is thought to have the potent...

Abstract Ice-penetrating radar sounding is a powerful geophysical tool for studying terrestrial and planetary ice with rich glaciological heritage reaching back over half century. Recent years have also seen rapid growth in both the radioglaciological community itself scope sophistication of its analysis ice-penetrating data. This has been spurred by combination growing datasets improvements co...
