Constrained Markov Decision Processes
ISBN: 9780849303821 / Angielski / Twarda / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22-25 dni roboczych. This book provides a unified approach for the study of constrained Markov decision processes with a finite state space and unbounded costs. Unlike the single controller case considered in many other books, the author considers a single controller with several objectives, such as minimizing delays and loss, probabilities, and maximization of throughputs. It is desirable to design a controller that minimizes one cost objective, subject to inequality constraints on other cost objectives. This framework describes dynamic decision problems arising frequently in many engineering fields. A thorough...

ISBN: 9780849371493 / Angielski / Twarda / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22-25 dni roboczych. Our modern view of quality is a multifaceted conglomeration of probability, planning, and perception. Although warranties are important first as an estimate and then as a measurement of reliability, most books on reliability and quality relegate the topic of warranties to a single chapter. Today s engineering student needs an integrated view that considers all aspects that contribute to overall quality along with methods to analyze, predict, measure, and improve each component.

Convexification and Global Optimization in Continuous and Mixed-Integer Nonlinear Programming : Theory, Algorithms, Software, and Applications
ISBN: 9781402010316 / Angielski / Twarda / 478 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Interest in constrained optimization originated with the simple linear pro- gramming model since it was practical and perhaps the only computationally tractable model at the time. Constrained linear optimization models were soon adopted in numerous application areas and are perhaps the most widely used mathematical models in operations research and management science at the time of this writing. Modelers have, however, found the assumption of linearity to be overly restrictive in expressing the real-world phenomena and problems in economics, finance, business, communication, engineering...

Networks Of Interacting Machines: Production Organization In Complex Industrial Systems And Biological Cells
ISBN: 9789812564986 / Angielski / Twarda / 280 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 25-30 dni roboczych. This review volume is devoted to a discussion of analogies and differences of complex production systems - natural, as in biological cells, or man-made, as in economic systems or industrial production. Taking this unified look at production is based on two observations: Cells and many biological networks are complex production units that have evolved to solve production problems in a reliable and optimal way in a highly stochastic environment. On the other hand, industrial production is becoming increasingly complex and often hard to predict. As a result, modeling and control of such...

Feature Selection in Data Mining - Approaches Based on Information Theory
ISBN: 9783836427111 / Angielski / Miękka / 104 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In many predictive modeling tasks, one has a fixed set of observations from which a vast, or even infinite, set of potentially predictive features can be computed. Of these features, often only a small number are expected to be useful in a predictive model. Models which use the entire set of features will almost certainly overfit on future data sets. The book presents streamwise feature selection which interleaves the process of generating new features with that of feature testing. Streamwise feature selection scales well to large feature sets. The book also describes how to use streamwise...
