The exploration reward (also called exploration bonus) methods convert the exploration-exploitation dilemma into a balance of exploitations. That is, instead of trying to get the agent to balance exploration and exploitation, exploration is simply treated as another form of exploitation, and the agent simply attempts to maximize the sum of ...
In some areas a prospector must also stake a claim, meaning they must erect posts with the appropriate placards on all four corners of a desired land they wish to prospect and register this claim before they may take samples. In other areas publicly held lands are open to prospecting without staking a mining claim. [2] [citation needed]
Site exploitation (SE), synonymous with tactical site exploitation [1] and sensitive site exploitation (SSE), is a military term used by the United States to describe "collecting information, material, and persons from a designated location and analyzing them to answer information requirements, facilitate subsequent operations, or support criminal prosecution."
Concrete example of Thompson sampling applied to simulate treatment efficacy evaluation. Thompson sampling, [1] [2] [3] named after William R. Thompson, is a heuristic for choosing actions that address the exploration-exploitation dilemma in the multi-armed bandit problem. It consists of choosing the action that maximizes the expected reward ...
The term is widely used in the realm of exploitation of hydrocarbon-based resources. The play cycle normally exhibits the following steps: initial observations of a possible oil reserve; testing and adjustments to initial estimates of extraction; high success in locating and extracting oil from a reserve; lower success as the reserve is depleted
Exploration is the process of exploring, an activity which has some expectation of discovery.Organised exploration is largely a human activity, but exploratory activity is common to most organisms capable of directed locomotion and the ability to learn, and has been described in, amongst others, social insects foraging behaviour, where feedback from returning individuals affects the activity ...
The exploitation of natural resources describes using natural resources, often non-renewable or limited, for economic growth [1] or development. [2] Environmental degradation , human insecurity, and social conflict frequently accompany natural resource exploitation.
Commercial recovery of space resources is the exploitation of raw materials from asteroids, comets and other space objects, including near-Earth objects. [31] Minerals and volatiles could be mined then used in space for in-situ utilization (e.g., construction materials and rocket propellant) or taken back to Earth.
