Bayesian Reinforcement Learning in MDPs: MDP: (S,A, T,R) • S: Set of states •A: Set of actions • T (s, a, s′) = Pr(s′|s, a), the transition probabilities •R(s, a) ∈ R, the immediate rewards Assume transition function T is the only unknown. •Define prior Pr(T ) •Maintain posterior Pr(T |s1, a1, s2, a2, . . . , at−1, st) via Bayes rule. •Act such as to maximize expected return given current poste...

enforcement of civil claims dictums is based on conditions and ceremonials that stated in civil dictums enforcement act. deadline respite in dictums enforcement is unreasonable and athwart goal and philosophy of procedure. also it,s against the indispensable of dictums. after islamic revolution, legislator ordains regulations that give extra deadline to some governmental and public organization...

screening of3000 soil samples collected from cities of four different provinces of iran for starch-hydrolysing bacteria revealed that the nature is enriched with streptomyces species capable of producing amylolytic enzymes. among the bacterial isolates, one of the high starch-degrading strains was selected for further microbiological identification and also amylolytic enzyme(s) characterization...

Insertion of additional octarepeats into the prion protein gene has been genetically linked to familial Creutzfeldt Jakob disease and hence to de novo generation of infectious prions. The pivotal event during prion formation is the conversion of the normal prion protein (PrPC) into the pathogenic conformer PrPSc, which subsequently induces further conversion in an autocatalytic manner. Apparent...

The general perception of Islamic finance is that it prohibits the practice of paying and receiving interest, but Islamicfinance is much broader than interest rate prohibition. Islamic financial services can be viewed as a set of financialservices which are diversified based on the needs of society.Since in THE Iranian Economy most of the enterprises are micro and/or small, micro financing seem...

The genus Septoria includes important plant pathogens with worldwide distribution, commonly associated with leaf spots and stem cankers of a broad range of plant hosts. In this study, eight isolates of Septoria were recovered from leaves with leaf spot on four herbaceous and woody plants from Gilan, Ardebil, East and West Azerbaijan provinces in north and northwest of Iran. The isolates were st...

The active site of nitrogenase, the M-cluster, is a metal-sulfur cluster containing a carbide at its core. Using radiolabeling experiments, we show that this carbide originates from the methyl group of S-adenosylmethionine (SAM) and that it is inserted into the M-cluster by the assembly protein NifB. Our SAM cleavage and deuterium substitution analyses suggest a similarity between the mechanism...
