Inducing and Assessing Acute Mental Stress in Controlled Conditions: Topical Review and Guidelines for Effective Experimental Protocols by Matteo Raggi, Lee J. Moore, Luca Mesin

“…When developing either a new device or algorithm, tests in controlled environments are preferred, because of the supervision of possible confounding factors while running the experiments. However, because of the extremely subjective perception of stress, the characteristics of the investigated samples, and the conditions under which the experiment is conducted, the data may not be representative of a perceived stressful condition, leading to biases. …”

Multiagent Reinforcement Learning-Based Taxi Predispatching Model to Balance Taxi Supply and Demand by Yongjian Yang, Xintao Wang, Yuanbo Xu, Qiuyang Huang

“…To solve this problem, we propose a Multiagent Reinforcement Learning- (MARL-) based taxi predispatching model through analyzing the running data of 13,000 taxis. Different from other methods of scheduling taxis based on the real-time location of orders, our model first predicts the demand for taxis in different regions in the next period and then dispatches taxis in advance to meet the future requirement; thus, the number of taxis needed and available in different regions can be balanced. …”
