  1. 1. Reinforcement Learning and Dynamical Systems

    Author : Björn Lindenberg; Karl-Olof Lindahl; Marc G. Bellemare; Linnéuniversitetet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; artificial intelligence; distributional reinforcement learning; Markov decision processes; Bellman operators; deep learning; multi-armed bandits; Bayesian bandits; conjugate priors; Thompson sampling; linear finite dynamical systems; cycle orbits; fixed-point systems; Mathematics; Matematik; Computer Science; Datavetenskap;

    Abstract : This thesis concerns reinforcement learning and dynamical systems in finite discrete problem domains. Artificial intelligence studies through reinforcement learning involves developing models and algorithms for scenarios when there is an agent that is interacting with an environment. READ MORE

  2. 2. Logical Dynamics and Dynamical Systems

    Author : Rasmus Kraemmer Rendsvig; Lund University Information Quality Research Group (LUIQ); []
    Keywords : Formal epistemology; Modal logic; Dynamic epistemic logic; Dynamical systems; General topology;

    Abstract : This thesis is on information dynamics modeled using *dynamic epistemic logic* (DEL). It takes the simple perspective of identifying models with maps, which under a suitable topology may be analyzed as *topological dynamical systems*. It is composed of an introduction and six papers.

  3. 3. Bayesian learning of structured dynamical systems

    Author : Riccardo Sven Risuleo; Håkan Hjalmarsson; Johan Schoukens; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; system identification; bayesian learning; machine learning; Gaussian processes; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

    Abstract : In this thesis, we propose some Bayesian approaches to the identificationof structured dynamical systems. In particular, we consider block-orientedmodels in which a complex system is built starting from simple linear andnonlinear building blocks. READ MORE

  4. 4. Species extinctions in food webs : local and regional processes

    Author : Anna Eklöf; Bo Ebenman; Peter Münger; Marcel Holyoak; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : Extinction; food web; metacommunity; dispersal; species loss; migration; habitat fragmentation; connectance; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP;

    Abstract : Loss of biodiversity is one of the most severe threats to the ecosystems of the world. The major causes behind the high population and species extinction rates are anthropogenic activities such as overharvesting of natural populations, pollution, climate change and destruction and fragmentation of natural habitats.

  5. 5. Probabilistic Sequence Models with Speech and Language Applications

    Author : Gustav Eje Henter; W. Bastiaan Kleijn; Arne Leijon; Gernot Kubin; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Time series; acoustic modelling; speech synthesis; stochastic processes; causal-state splitting reconstruction; robust causal states; pattern discovery; Markov models; HMMs; nonparametric models; Gaussian processes; Gaussian process dynamical models; nonlinear Kalman filters; information theory; minimum entropy rate simplification; kernel density estimation; time-series bootstrap;

    Abstract : Series data, sequences of measured values, are ubiquitous. Whenever observations are made along a path in space or time, a data sequence results. To comprehend nature and shape it to our will, or to make informed decisions based on what we know, we need methods to make sense of such data. READ MORE
