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 ...

Ergodic Exploration Using Tensor Train: Applications in Insertion Tasks

Sylvain Calinon, Suhan Narayana Shetty

In robotics, ergodic control extends the tracking principle by specifying a probability distribution over an area to cover instead of a trajectory to track. The original problem is formulated as a spectral multiscale coverage problem, typically requiring t ...

A Correlation-Based Electromagnetic Time Reversal Technique to Locate Indoor Transient Radiation Sources

Farhad Rachidi-Haeri, Marcos Rubinstein, Zhaoyang Wang, Qi Li

To overcome the multipath interference in locating transient electromagnetic (EM) radiation sources in an indoor environment, we propose a criterion that calculates the correlation between back-propagated signals from observation points, to be used in EM t ...

Seismic control performance of a three-story frame prototype equipped with semi-active variable stiffness and damping structural joints

Gennaro Senatore

This paper presents numerical and experimental studies on semi-active seismic response control of structures equipped with variable stiffness and damping structural joints. Such adaptive joints, which are comprised of a shape memory polymer (SMP) core rein ...

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 ...

A machine learning approach for mapping the very shallow theoretical geothermal potential

Jean-Louis Scartezzini, Dan Assouline, Nahid Mohajeri Pour Rayeni

The very shallow geothermal potential (vSGP) is increasingly recognized as a viable resource for providing clean thermal energy in urban and rural areas. This is primarily due to its reliability, low-cost installation, easy maintenance, and little constrai ...

Extension of the Unmatched-Media Time Reversal Method to Locate Soft Faults in Transmission Lines

Mario Paolone

An alternative method based on time reversal to locate solid faults in transmission line networks was recently proposed by Codino et al. in the paper “An alternative method for locating faults in transmission line networks based on time reversal” (IEEE Tra ...

The Role of Geological Barriers in Achieving Robust Well Integrity

Brice Tanguy Alphonse Lecampion

Wells play a key role in the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions. They are not only a critical element in ensuring the permanent trapping of carbon dioxide (CO2) in deep subsurface permeable formations, but they are also being recognized as an important ...

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 ...
