Model-Based Graph Reinforcement Learning for Inductive Traffic Signal Control by Francois-Xavier Devailly, Denis Larocque, Laurent Charlin

“…We introduce MuJAM, an adaptive traffic signal control method which leverages model-based reinforcement learning to 1) extend recent generalization efforts (to road network architectures and traffic distributions) further by allowing a generalization to the controllers’ constraints (cyclic and acyclic policies), 2) improve performance and data efficiency over related model-free approaches, and 3) enable explicit coordination at scale for the first time. …”

Simulation on the Self-Compacting Concrete by an Enhanced Lagrangian Particle Method by Jun Wu, Xuemei Liu, Haihua Xu, Hongjian Du

“…Due to the large deformation at the flowing process of SCC, an enhanced Lagrangian particle-based method, Smoothed Particles Hydrodynamics (SPH) method, though first developed to study astrophysics problems, with its exceptional advantages in solving problems involving fragmentation, coalescence, and violent free surface deformation, is developed in this study to simulate the flow of SCC as a non-Newtonian fluid to achieve stable results with satisfactory convergence properties. …”

Lump Solutions and Resonance Stripe Solitons to the (2+1)-Dimensional Sawada-Kotera Equation by Xian Li, Yao Wang, Meidan Chen, Biao Li

“…These solutions contain six parameters, four of which satisfy two determinant conditions to guarantee the analyticity and rational localization of the solutions, while the others are free. Then by adding an exponential function into the original positive quadratic function, the interaction solutions between lump solutions and one stripe soliton are derived. …”
