Objective(s) Nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) regulate epileptiform activity and produce a sustained pro-epileptogenic action within the hippocampal slices. In the present study, we investigated the effect of nAChRs on evoked glutamatergic synaptic transmission in area CA3 and CA1 of rat hippocampal slices to identify possible excitatory circuits through which activation of nAChRs pr...

This note re-visits the rolling-horizon control approach to problem of Markov decision process (MDP) with infinite-horizon discounted expected reward criterion. Distinguished from classical value-iteration approaches, we develop an asynchronous on-line algorithm based on policy iteration integrated a multi-policy improvement method switching. A sequence monotonically improving solutions forecas...
