multi agent markov decision processes (mmdps), as the generalization of markov decision processes to the multi agent case, have long been used for modeling multi agent system and are used as a suitable framework for multi agent reinforcement learning. in this paper, a generalized learning automata based algorithm for finding optimal policies in mmdp is proposed. in the proposed algorithm, mmdp ...

state as most affecting organization in politics, effects on different sphere in social life. in development discussion and its strategies, we must attention to these subjects: how can state effects on development? what is its role in this respect? some researches have historical attributions and study the role of state in development countries in past. other researchers, study the role of stat...

the present article tries to prove that there is a reverse relation between the role of state in political society and its liability. in other words, the greater state’s interference with the political society, the less will be its responsibility and hence its liability. on contrary, making limitation to the state’s role in political society will increase its responsibility and thus its liabili...

today, the importance of entrepreneurship and its influence on development of societies is inevitable and the role of universities in this regards is very specific. this study aimed to evaluate the entrepreneurship talent in junior and senior students through descriptive - survey research, are discussed.  according to the target population (n = 3422), by aid of krejcie and morgan table and rand...

International investment agreements have provoked intense criticism in the policy debate during recent years. Particularly contentious has been their “ISDS” mechanisms, which enable investors to bring disputes against host countries. This paper examines whether countries would be better off with state-state dispute settlement (SSDS), as often alleged, assuming that SSDS cause political/diplomat...

in this work, all-solid-state potentiometric pvc membrane sensor was introduced for fast andsimple monitoring of mercury ions in waste water samples. the all solid sate electrode is made based on aconductive composite of graphite, reduced graphene oxide, epoxy resin on a copper wire. a thin layer pvcmembrane is then coated on the surface of the new conducting transducer. pvc membrane is compose...

we reports a six-year-old child with autistic disorder and methadone intoxication. developmental disorders may mislead the caretakers and doctors to interpret the clinical manifestation and behavioral changes of these patients. methadone indigestion can be fatal in children even in a tiny amount and cardiac monitoring should be performed at least for the first 24 hours. the pervasive prescripti...

the study examined prospects of selected forest fruits and vegetables in enugu north agricultural zone of enugu state, nigeria. structured interview schedule and focus group discussion were used to collect data from a sample of one hundred and twenty (120) respondents. data were analyzed using matrix rank ordering, percentage, mean scores and standard deviation. results of the study identified ...

the present work is the successful extension of an improved equation of state (eos) to refrigerant fluids. the objective is the prediction of isothermal and saturated liquid densities of refrigerants. two temperature-independent parameters appearing in the modified eos are closely related to critical point properties of refrigerant fluids. our results showed that, the proposed eos can predict w...

an analytical equation of state has been previously modified by papari et al. for representing the volumetric properties of molecular fluids. however the performance of that eos has not been yet well investigated for refrigerant fluids. this study extended that equation to 19 liquid refrigerants to predict their densities at isothermal and saturated states. two temperature-independent parameter...
