Reinforcement Learning

Reinforcement Learning

How would you teach a child to play a video game? You might sit down with them, put the controller in their hands, and push buttons with them. You might do the first level with them, and have them copy what you do until they get it down exactly right.

Transparency in Open Data Contest

Transparency in Open Data Contest

This study measures the degree of innovation performance transparency and solution transparency to determine the effect of transparency on participation and innovation. Transparency in Open Data Contest Primary Research Questions:

Home Energy Monitoring, Visual Analytics and Collective-Action

Home Energy Monitoring, Visual Analytics and Collective-Action

This project extracts granular perceptual, behavioral and interaction data. Graph Based Feedback for Collaborative Energy Consumption Data-driven feedback and interactions with personal devices are changing the way we make decisions. They increasingly use visual interactive graphs (e.
