Graph Exploration for Effective Multiagent Q-Learning

This article proposes an exploration technique for multiagent reinforcement learning (MARL) with graph-based communication among agents. We assume that the individual rewards received by the agents are independent of the actions by the other agents, while ...

impresso Text Reuse at Scale. An interface for the exploration of text reuse data in semantically enriched historical newspapers

Maud Ehrmann, Matteo Romanello

Text Reuse reveals meaningful reiterations of text in large corpora. Humanities researchers use text reuse to study, e.g., the posterior reception of influential texts or to reveal evolving publication practices of historical media. This research is often ...

cell2mol: encoding chemistry to interpret crystallographic data

Rubén Laplaza Solanas, Anne-Clémence Corminboeuf, Sergio Vela Llausi, Yuri Cho

The creation and maintenance of crystallographic data repositories is one of the greatest data-related achievements in chemistry. Platforms such as the Cambridge Structural Database host what is likely the most diverse collection of synthesizable molecules ...

Stress management in the context of induced seismicity in subsurface reservoirs

Barnaby Padraig Fryer

The stress state of the subsurface has been shown to have an influence on a number of key processes. For example, the criticality of the stress state indicates how large stress changes need to be before a fault begins to slip, the mean effective stress con ...

Developing a high capacity axis translation apparatus for gas shale testing

Lyesse Laloui, Alessio Ferrari, Jinwoo Kim

Gas shales are usually partially saturated due to hydrocarbon generation and often have a low in-situ degree of saturation less than 40 %. During stimulation, substantial fluid imbibition into the formation occurs due to high suction. Recent research on th ...

Numerical investigation on water exchange of shale samples

Alessio Ferrari, Sara Incollingo

Interest in the hydraulic and mechanical characterization of shales has grown in recent years, because of their application in the context of energy geotechnics. In the frame of nuclear waste disposal shales are considered as host formations for the placem ...

Improving life cycle-based exploration methods by coupling sensitivity analysis and metamodels

Thomas Bernard Paul Jusselme

Exploration methods combine parametric energy assessments and data visualization to support building designers at early design stages. When exploration methods come to Life-Cycle Assessment (LCA) and the Global Warming Potential (GWP) assessment, a larger ...

The Gaia-ESO Survey: dynamics of ionized and neutral gas in the Lagoon nebula (M 8)

Carmela Lardo

Aims. We present a spectroscopic study of the dynamics of the ionized and neutral gas throughout the Lagoon nebula (M 8), using VLT-FLAMES data from the Gaia-ESO Survey. The new data permit exploration of the physical connections between the nebular gas an ...

Seismic Simultaneous Source Separation via Patchwise Sparse Representation

Pascal Frossard, Yiren Zhou

The concept of simultaneous source has recently become of interest in seismic exploration, due to its efficient or economic acquisition or both. The blended data overlapped between shot records are acquired in simultaneous source acquisition. Separating th ...

The role of mass-transport deposits and turbidites in shaping modern lacustrine deepwater channels

Nicolas Le Dantec

Subaquatic canyons are an important pathway for sediment transport into oceanic and lacustrine basins. Understanding the mechanisms governing their geomorphological evolution is a key to predict the sediment distribution patterns through these sediment con ...

Composition and fate of gas and oil released to the water column during the Deepwater Horizon oil spill

Jeremy Samuel Arey

Quantitative information regarding the endmember composition of the gas and oil that flowed from the Macondo well during the Deepwater Horizon oil spill is essential for determining the oil flow rate, total oil volume released, and trajectories and fates o ...

NoC Emulation on FPGA: HW/SW Synergy for NoC Features Exploration

Giovanni De Micheli, David Atienza Alonso, Nicolas Genko

Current Systems-On-Chip (SoC) execute applications that demand extensive parallel processing. Networks-On-Chip (NoC) provide a structured way of realizing interconnections on silicon, and obviate the limitations of bus-based solution. NoCs can have regular ...
