: Elaborations of Competence-based Knowledge Space Theory (CbKST) incorporate skills that refer to the conceptual information of the domain as well as to the activities learners ar...
This paper presents a novel framework called proto-reinforcement learning (PRL), based on a mathematical model of a proto-value function: these are task-independent basis function...
Learning general functional dependencies is one of the main goals in machine learning. Recent progress in kernel-based methods has focused on designing flexible and powerful input...
