Evaluation of Subject-Specific Heuristics for Initial Learning Environments: A Pilot Study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Heuristic evaluation is a “discount” technique for finding usability problems in well-established domains. This paper presents thirteen suggested heuristics for initial learning environments (ILEs).

Use of Less Relevant Heuristics in Mortgage Valuations in Tanzania

open access: yesJournal of African Real Estate Research, 2019
Valuation-surveyors, like all other disciplines, are invariably influenced by a host of factors when estimating values for different purposes. Faced with complex decision-making in valuation, many surveyors are compelled to make use of heuristics ...

Efficient Heuristic for Resource Allocation in Zero-forcing OFDMA-SDMA Systems with Minimum Rate Constraints

open access: yes, 2014
4G wireless access systems require high spectral efficiency to support the ever increasing number of users and data rates for real time applications. Multi-antenna OFDM-SDMA systems can provide the required high spectral efficiency and dynamic usage of ...

Reinforcement learning for Order Acceptance on a shared resource [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Order acceptance (OA) is one of the main functions in business control. Basically, OA involves for each order a reject/accept decision. Always accepting an order when capacity is available could disable the system to accept more convenient orders in the ...

Multi-Heuristic A*

open access: yesRobotics: Science and Systems X, 2014
The performance of heuristic search-based planners depends heavily on the quality of the heuristic function used to focus the search. These algorithms work fast and generate high-quality solutions, even for high-dimensional problems, as long as they are given a well-designed heuristic function.

Applications of QSPR and Machine Learning in Molecular Photonics

open access: yesAdvanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
Quantitative structureproperty relationships (QSPR) and machine learning (ML) are transforming photochemistry by enabling pre‐synthetic screening of photoactive molecules. This review outlines advances in data‐driven discovery of optical materials and functional dyes, identifies effective descriptors and models for photophysical processes, and provides

Planning Graph Heuristics for Belief Space Search

open access: yes, 2011
Some recent works in conditional planning have proposed reachability heuristics to improve planner scalability, but many lack a formal description of the properties of their distance estimates.

Heuristics Miners for Streaming Event Data [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
More and more business activities are performed using information systems. These systems produce such huge amounts of event data that existing systems are unable to store and process them.

Visual Heuristics

open access: yes, 2022
Im Zeitalter drittmittelabhängiger Wissenschaft gewinnt die Formulierung vorläufiger Ergebnisse und Ergebniserwartungen in Forschungsanträgen an Bedeutung. Gleichzeitig steht eine wachsende Kultur der Veröffentlichung von Zwischenergebnissen oder Forschungsdaten einer geschichtswissenschaftlichen Tradition entgegen, der es hauptsächlich um die ...
