If you are just starting in or need a refresher, check out my introduction to video! I cover the basic theory and how they work.

I know I haven't been posting much lately. I've just been slightly depressed about my job and stuff.

I've been working on making changes to improve things, but for now I feel like I'm in Limbo and I don't have a lot of motivation to be chatty and whimsical.

I'll be fine, though. I've been really enjoying my studies lately. Stepping through exercises has given me an appreciation for that I never had before. 😺

A couple decades ago it occurred to me that the dynamics of disagreement often tend toward polarization rather than toward unification at a higher level of understanding.

Further, it seemed (to me) that this might be analogous to the behavior of a feedback loop out of control and going to one or the other of its extreme rails.

And further, this seemed (to me) to be the behavior of a system finding its lowest energy/information state, associated with lack of requisite variety.

This behavior seemed (to me) generalizable in principle across systems based on electronics, mechanisms, …, human individuals, and groups.

At that time I was active in a forum of Very Smart People, and when I ventured this observation/opinion it received no interest or engagement.

I'm wondering whether now, twenty years later, with polarization in politics being grossly apparent, whether anyone reading this might be able to recommend some sources of more extensive thinking on the question of such a general principle…?

My new post provides an introduction to my field of research. It's written for a non-technical audience. Please comment if you have any questions!

I plan to also write more posts explaining my research in more details.

The map of control theory is now available in Romanian! You can download a free hi-res version from my website,  engineeringmedia.com/map-of-co, along with 12 other languages.

A huge thank you to Ancuța MONE and Matei Popescu for providing the translation and reviewing it for typos.

Dynamic Programming is one way to arrive at the solution of the Markov Decision Process or MDP used in Reinforcement Learning (RL) problems.

In the third article on the Foundational RL series, I discuss dynamic programming and briefly talk about Approximate Dynamic Programming.

Time for a very late !

I'm an Associate Professor at State University (), where I do a lot of inter- and multi-disciplinary work straddling animal behavior/behavioral ecology, autonomous systems/robotics, optimization/analytics, and machine learning/AI. Lately, I've been doing a lot of work with , , , and -inspired . But my background is in .

Otherwise, yay to , , , and ! 😃
