Speeding Up Computer Simulations: The Transition Observable Method
نویسندگان
چکیده
A method is presented which allows for a tremendous speed-up of computer simulations of statistical systems by orders of magnitude. This speed-up is achieved by means of a new observable, while the algorithm of the simulation remains unchanged.

Speeding up the Stress Analysis of Hollow Circular FGM Cylinders by Parallel Finite Element Method
In this article, a parallel computer program is implemented, based on Finite Element Method, to speed up the analysis of hollow circular cylinders, made from Functionally Graded Materials (FGMs). FGMs are inhomogeneous materials, which their composition gradually varies over volume. In parallel processing, an algorithm is first divided to independent tasks, which may use individual or shared da...
متن کاملLocking in Returns: Speeding Up Q-Learning by Scaling
One problem common to many reinforcement learning algorithms is their need for large amounts of training, resulting in a variety of methods for speeding up these algorithms. We propose a novel method that is remarkable both for its simplicity and its utility in speeding up Q-learning. It operates by scaling the values in the Q-table after limited, typically small, amounts of learning. Empirical...
متن کاملA Method for Speeding Up Value Iteration in Partially Observable Markov Decision Processes
We present a technique for speeding up the convergence of value iteration for par tially observable Markov decisions processes (POMDPs). The underlying idea is similar to that behind modified policy iteration for fully observable Markov decision processes (MDPs). The technique can be easily incor porated into any existing POMDP value it eration algorithms. Experiments have been conducted on ...
متن کاملTime manipulation technique for speeding up reinforcement learning in simulations
A technique for speeding up reinforcement learning algorithms by using time manipulation is proposed. It is applicable to failure-avoidance control problems running in a computer simulation. Turning the time of the simulation backwards on failure events is shown to speed up the learning by 260% and improve the state space exploration by 12% on the cart-pole balancing task, compared to the conve...
متن کاملنقش رایانه در طراحی فرش (در سه دهه اخیر)
Design, color and pattern, which are of the carpet overriding esthetic elements, create identity for a carpet. Designers have been depicting the most beautiful and attractive pictures as the carpet design for the past centuries. The history of incorporating computer-based designs into carpets does not exceed three decades; therefore, it is a present-day technology adopted: In the similar vein, ...
