Notes on Peter Karpovich for admission to Springfield College, c. 1925
No full textThese are notes on Peter V. Karpovich that were created, mostly likely, as part of his admissions process to Springfield College, c. 1925. The author or writer of these pages is not identified. Nor is it identified as to how, whether in a meeting or an interview or just from reading information, these notes were created. The notes are written in abreviations and in short fragments. The notes basically outline facts about his life, including age, family, education history, medical practice, present living arrangements, experience with the Young Men's Christian Associaation (YMCA), and experience in teaching Physical Education. Finally they also talk about his arrival in the United States, his desires for work/education at Springfield College., and his prospects of returning to Russia after his degree.For more information on Peter V. Karpovich, see: https://springfield.as.atlas-sys.com/agents/people/57

From Floor to Sky -The Experience of Art School and the teaching of Peter Kardia
No full textImages of my work with text is included in a section of this colour hardback format book with introduction by Roderick Coyne and essays by Peter Kardia , Malcolm Le Grice , Hester Westley and sections on 25 artists.
Peter Kardia is widely recognised as a radical and influential teacher at both Saint Martins and the Royal College during the 60s and 70s. From the long list of Peter Kardia's ex-students 25 well-known artists have been invited to participate in an exhibition at the P3 gallery (www.p3exhibitions.com) in March 2010, as a sort of potted retrospective of both their work and Peter's teaching.
They are asked to show a piece of work from their student or graduation days, as well as a current piece, collectively providing a body of work that will show the range of British sculpture from the last 30 years.
The book acts as a catalogue for the exhibition, but is also intended to work as a stand-alone production and extends a little further to include approx. 4 images per artist, including one from both degree show and current times.
About the Author(s) Peter Kardia is widely recognised as a radical and influential teacher at both Saint Martins and the Royal College during the 60s and 70s, and his essay on how we should be approaching art and education is central to the book. Hester Wesley has researched and written on Peter's influence on art education and his teaching at Saint Martins and the Royal College, placing it into wider context of art education generally. The last essay is by Malcolm Le Grice (art historian) on the influence of the art teacher and art schools in history on the artist
Distributional Reinforcement Learning for Flight Control: A risk-sensitive approach to aircraft attitude control using Distributional RL
No full textWith the recent increase in the complexity of aerospace systems and autonomous operations, there is a need for an increased level of adaptability and model-free controller synthesis. Such operations require the controller to maintain safety and performance without human intervention in non-static environments with partial observability and uncertainty. Deep Reinforcement Learning (DRL) algorithms have the potential to increase the safety and autonomy of aerospace control systems. It has been shown that the soft actor-critic (SAC) algorithm can achieve robust control of a CS-25 certified aircraft and has the generalization power to react to failure scenarios. Traditional DRL approaches, such as the state-of-the-art SAC algorithm struggle with inconsistent learning in high-dimensional tasks and fall short of modelling uncertainty and risk in the environment. In contrast, distributional RL algorithms estimate the entire probability distribution of rewards, improve the learning characteristics and enable the synthesis of risk- sensitive policies. This paper demonstrates the improved learning characteristics of distributional soft actor-critic (DSAC) compared to traditional SAC and discusses the benefits of risk-sensitive learning applied to flight control. We show that the addition of distributional critics significantly improves learning consistency, and successfully approximates the uncertainty when applied to a fully-coupled attitude control task of a jet aircraft.Public code repository https://github.com/peter-seres/dsac-flightAerospace Engineerin
