Integrated architectures for learning, planning, and reacting based on approximating dynamic programming

by Richard S. Sutton - Proceedings of the SevenLh International Conference on Machine Learning , 1990
"... gutton~gte.com Dyna is an AI architecture that integrates learning, planning, and reactive execution. Learning methods are used in Dyna both for compiling planning results and for updating a model of the effects of the agent's actions on the world. Planning is incremental and can use the probab ..."

the probabilistic and ofttimes incorrect world models generated by learning processes. Execution is fully reactive in the sense that no planning intervenes between perception and action. Dyna relies on machine learning methods for learning from examples--these are among the basic building blocks making up

Discrete Choice Methods with Simulation

by Kenneth E. Train , 2002
"... This book describes the new generation of discrete choice meth-ods, focusing on the many advances that are made possible by simulation. Researchers use these statistical methods to examine the choices that consumers, households, firms, and other agents make. Each of the major models is covered: logi ..."

Tutorial Generating 3D Building Models from Architectural Drawings: A

by Xuetao Yin, Peter Wonka, Anshuman Razdan
"... Using 3D building models is extremely help-ful throughout the architecture engineer-ing and construction (AEC) lifecycle. Such models let designers and architects virtually walk through a project to get a more intuitive perspec-tive on their work. They can also check a design’s validity by running c ..."

The Helmholtz Machine

by Peter Dayan, Geoffrey E. Hinton, Radford M. Neal, Richard S. Zemel , 1995
"... Discovering the structure inherent in a set of patterns is a fundamental aim of statistical inference or learning. One fruitful approach is to build a parameterized stochastic generative model, independent draws from which are likely to produce the patterns. For all but the simplest generative model ..."

A survey of free-form object representation and recognition techniques

by Richard J. Campbell, Patrick J. Flynn - Computer Vision and Image Understanding , 2001
"... Advances in computer speed, memory capacity, and hardware graphics acceleration have made the interactive manipulation and visualization of complex, detailed (and therefore large) three-dimensional models feasible. These models are either painstakingly designed through an elaborate CAD process or re ..."

Drawing-based Procedural Modeling of Chinese Architectures

by Fei Hou, Yue Qi, Hong Qin
"... Abstract—This paper presents a novel modeling framework to build 3D models of Chinese architectures from elevation drawing. Our algorithm integrates the capability of automatic drawing recognition with powerful procedural modeling to extract production rules from elevation drawing. First, different ..."

Reconstructing building interiors from images

by Yasutaka Furukawa, Brian Curless, Steven M. Seitz, Richard Szeliski - In Proc. of the International Conference on Computer Vision (ICCV , 2009
"... This paper proposes a fully automated 3D reconstruction and visualization system for architectural scenes (interiors and exteriors). The reconstruction of indoor environments from photographs is particularly challenging due to texture-poor planar surfaces such as uniformly-painted walls. Our system ..."
