We present a novel approach for identifying exact and approximate behavioral equivalence between models of agents. This is significant because both decision making game play in multiagent settings must contend with other agents order to predict their actions. One that reduces the complexity model space group are behaviorally equivalent. Identifying requires solving them comparing entire policy trees. Because trees grow exponentially horizon, our focus on partial comparison determining...

The long-term sequelae of vasectomy were studied in a retrospective cohort study 4596 vasectomized and 4340 nonvasectomized farmers from eight rural communes Sichuan, People's Republic China. mean duration since the operation was 14.5 years with range 10 to 25 years. At time evaluation men generally healthier than non-vasectomized for wide health indicators including clinical signs cardiovascular disease, resting ECG changes, positive changes following maximal stress test, or fundus...

LEACH (low energy adaptive clustering hierarchy) is one of the popular routing protocols for WSN (Wireless Sensor Network). Cluster head selection algorithm and inequality node power consumption are unreasonable disadvantages, thus an saving method LEACH-IMP proposed based on LEACH. All nodes divided into fixed clusters (In essence, fixation relatively). According to distance from cluster members adaptively join cluster. MATLAB simulation proves that improved protocol effective overcoming...

Communication is an important resource for multiagent coordination. Interactive Dynamic Influence Diagrams (I-DIDs) have been used extensively in planning when there uncertainty, and they are recognized graphical representations of Partially Observable Markov Decision Processes (I-POMDPs). We establish a communication model among multiple agents based on the I-DID framework. use AND-communication method by assuming separate action phase each step, rather than replacing domain actions, order...
