Learn what is a variable ratio & what is variable ratio schedule of reinforcement. Understand the concept with some real examples of variable-ratio...
Variable-ratio reinforcement is generally defined as delivering reinforcement after a target behavior is exhibited a random number of times. Let’s take a slot machine, for example. A gambler sits down at a slot machine and bets $1 a pull. As you would expect, most of the time the gambler...
Understand a variable interval and a variable-interval reinforcement schedule. Using a few variable-interval schedule examples, learn about their...
The significance of rigorous optimization techniques in antenna engineering has grown significantly in recent years. For many design tasks, parameter tuning must be conducted globally, presenting a challenge due to associated computational costs. The pop
The area circumscribed by the lower rim of the innermost frustum at the top of the array is substantially larger than the area required to transmit rays reflected from the innermost frustum to the focus at the rear of the collector. The ratio of the largest diameter of the outermost frustum ...
Facilitation of variable interval performance by intermittent conditioned reinforcementThree rats were placed on either multiple or mixed schedules of VI 2 min. primary reinforcement. Conditioned reinforcement was superimposed in one of two components on a VI 30 sec. schedule. Response rates in these ...
The ideal model for the normal acceleration response to the command was set to have a natural frequency of 2.5 rad/s and a damping ratio of 0.8 to allow for some overshoot. Performance weights were set to ensure the model matching error does not exceed five times the normal acceleration ...
