    The Core of The Triangular Pear The beatnik poetry of Andrei Voznesensky shows an evolving image of America from a Russian standpoint. In his poem “The Triangular Pear,” Voznesensky has no agenda to show the positive nature of Russia, or the negative effects of capitalism. Instead, his sole concern is to discover the core of America, to answer the age-old question, “What is America?

  • Solving Pole-Balancing Problem with POMDP

    1002 Words  | 3 Pages

    Abstract — Partially Observable Markov Decision Processes (POMDP) has been widely applied in fields including robot navigation, machine maintenance, marketing, Medical Diagnosis, and so on [1]. But its exact solution is inefficient in both space and time. This paper investigates Smooth Partially Observable Value Approximation (SPOVA) [2], which approximates belief values by a differentiable function and then use gradient descent to update belief values. This POMDP approximation algorithm is applied

    This essay is going to define machine learning and describe some of the different areas within machine learning. It will summarise some of the algorithms used to achieve machine learning and describe some of the situations in which they can be applied, then compare these to human learning techniques and comment on there similarities and differences. It will then discuss Raymond Kurzweils singularity theories and its opposing views. Intro Machine learning is having a large impact on the way that
