Scalable Planning and Learning for Multiagent POMDPs: Extended Version
Online, sample-based planning algorithms for POMDPs have shown great promise
in scaling to problems with large state spaces, but they become intractable for
large action and observation spaces. This is particularly problematic in
multiagent POMDPs where the action and observation space grows exponentially
with the number of agents. To combat this intractability, we propose a novel
scalable approach based on sample-based planning and factored value functions
that exploits structure present in many multiagent settings. This approach
applies not only in the planning case, but also in the Bayesian reinforcement
learning setting. Experimental results show that we are able to provide high
quality solutions to large multiagent planning and learning problems
On the Coexistence Magnetism/Superconductivity in the Heavy-Fermion Superconductor CePtSi
The interplay between magnetism and superconductivity in the newly discovered
heavy-fermion superconductor CePtSi has been investigated using the
zero-field SR technique. The SR data indicate that the whole muon
ensemble senses spontaneous internal fields in the magnetic phase,
demonstrating that magnetism occurs in the whole sample volume. This points to
a microscopic coexistence between magnetism and heavy-fermion
superconductivity.Comment: Final version, new figure structure, references correcte
The 10 Tesla muSR instrument: detector solutions
Solutions to the detector system of the High-Field muSR instrument at the
Paul Scherrer Institut (PSI) in Switzerland are presented. The strict technical
requirements are fulfilled through the application of Geiger-mode Avalanche
Photodiodes.Comment: 6 pages, 4 figure
