Abstract:

Actor programs give rise to computation structures that evolve dynamically and unpredictably both in shape and size. Therefore, their execution times cannot be statically determined. This paper describes an approach to the problem of estimating time costs of actor programs. The approach takes into account the constraints imposed both by the semantics and implementation of the model. In particular, implementation constraints can be captured and exploited to drastically reduce the number of computations generable by the program, thus simplifying the execution time evaluation. Moreover, execution

Abstract:

Reactive programming is a programming paradigm whereby programs are internally represented by a dependency graph, which is used to automatically (re)compute parts of a program whenever its input changes. In practice reactive programming can only be used for some parts of an application: a reactive program is usually embedded in an application that is still written in ordinary imperative languages such as JavaScript or Scala. In this paper we investigate this embedding and we distill "the awkward squad for reactive programming" as 3 concerns that are essential for real-world software

Humans and non-human animals show great flexibility in spatial navigation, including the ability to return to specific locations based on as few as one single experience. To study spatial navigation in the laboratory, watermaze tasks, in which rats have to find a hidden platform in a pool of cloudy water surrounded by spatial cues, have long been used. Analogous tasks have been developed for human participants using virtual environments. Spatial learning in the watermaze is facilitated by the hippocampus. In particular, rapid, one-trial, allocentric place learning, as measured in the delayed-m

AbstractConstraint Handling Rules (CHR) is both an effective concurrent declarative programming language and a versatile computational logic formalism. In CHR, guarded reactive rules rewrite a multi-set of constraints. Concurrency is inherent, since rules can be applied to the constraints in parallel. In this comprehensive survey, we give an overview of the concurrent, parallel as well as distributed CHR semantics, standard and more exotic, that have been proposed over the years at various levels of refinement.

Abstract:

Most approaches for goal recognition rely on specifications of the possible dynamics of the actor in the environment when pursuing a goal. These specifications suffer from two key issues. First, encoding these dynamics requires careful design by a domain expert, which is often not robust to noise at recognition time. Second, existing approaches often need costly real-time computations to reason about the likelihood of each potential goal. In this paper, we develop a framework that combines model-free reinforcement learning and goal recognition to alleviate the need for careful, manual domain d

Abstract:

In this paper, we present a distributed object-oriented language, ABCDL, which has proved to be a suitable tool for the definition and implementation of distributed artificial intelligence systems. ABCDL is based on two different entities: actors and channels. An actor is a computational entity which performs some actions in response to incoming communications. An actor can also display a distributed behavior. In this case, it is composed of a set of other actors (distributed or not) synchronized by channels. A channel is a synchronization entity which sends a message to an (output) actor on t

Inspired by human decision-making patterns, which involve reasoning only on critical states in continuous decision-making tasks without considering all states, we introduce the LazyAct algorithm.

This paper describes the construction of a Cloud for Distributed Data Analysis (CDDA) based on the actor model.

The process does not require loading data sets into the cloud and allows users to analyze confidential information locally. The results of experiments show that the efficiency of the proposed approach outperforms established solutions.

In this paper, we argue that model-based design and platform-based design are two views of the same thing. A platform is an abstraction layer in the design flow.

For example, the set of all ASICs based on a particular core-based architecture and the set of all x86 programs are induced sets. Hence, a platform is equivalently a set of designs.

Abstract:

This work presents the development of a computational solution for intelligent home monitoring, designed to detect people, analyze their behaviors and issue alerts for abnormal activities. YOLOv8-Pose technology was used to detect people's key points and a modified MLP (Multilayer Perceptron) neural network with LSTM (Long Short-Term Memory) characteristics was used to classify behavior. The training dataset was created by recording videos using a smartphone strategically positioned to capture the frontal area of a residence. This resulted in 154 video clips where the actor exhibited normal be

Abstract:

Multi-actor multi-criteria analysis (MAMCA) was developed with a process involving the participation of various stakeholders. Stakeholders express various criteria as measures for the achievement of their respective goals. In general, the assessment of each stakeholder is considered to have the same weight. In reality, the weight of each stakeholder’s involvement in policy decision making is not the same. For example, the government’s assessment weight will be different from those of local business actors. In this study, the authors developed a multi-actor multi-criteria analysis method by add

Abstract:

Deep reinforcement learning (DRL) has demonstrated significant potential in various applications, including gaming AI, robotics, and system scheduling. DRL algorithms produce, sample, and learn from training data online through a trial-and-error process, demanding considerable time and computational resources. To address this, distributed DRL algorithms and paradigms have been developed to expedite training using extensive resources. Through carefully designed experiments, we are the first to observe that strategically increasing the actor-environment interactions by spawning more concurrent a

Abstract:

Science Teaching has evolved continuously, driven by several factors, among which the use of Digital Technologies (DT) stands out. Computational Thinking (CP), in turn, can contribute to a deeper understanding of these advances. In this context, this research aims to describe, analyze and discuss, based on the Actor-Network Theory (ART), the results on the perception of computational thinking by a group of teachers who participated in the training course "Computational Thinking in Science Teaching". This course, promoted by the State University of Western Paraná, through four meetings and 25-h

Abstract:

This paper addresses the challenge of offloading resource-intensive image segmentation tasks and allocating computing resources within the Internet of Vehicles (IoV) using edge-based AI. To overcome the limitations of onboard computing in smart vehicles, this study develops an efficient edge computing resource allocation system. The core of this system is an improved model-free soft actor–critic (iSAC) algorithm, which is enhanced by incorporating prioritized experience replay (PER). This PER-iSAC algorithm is designed to accelerate the learning process, maintain stability, and improve the eff

Abstract:

In order to overcome the difficulty of learning a global optimal policy caused by maximization bias in a continuous space, an actor-critic algorithm for cross evaluation of double value function is proposed. Two independent value functions make the critique closer to the real value function. And the actor is guided by a crossover function to choose its optimal actions. Cross evaluation of value functions avoids the policy jitter phenomenon behaved by greedy optimization methods in continuous spaces. The algorithm is more robust than CACLA learning algorithm, and the experimental results show t

Abstract:

The application of Machine Learning techniques over networks, such as prediction tasks over nodes and edges, is becoming often crucial in the analysis of Complex systems in a wide range of research fields. One of the enabling technologies in that sense is represented by Node Embedding, which enables us to learn features automatically over the network. Among the different approaches proposed in the literature, the most promising are DeepWalk and Node2Vec, where the embedding is computed by combining random walks and neural language models. However, characteristic limitations with these techniqu
