Efficient Reinforcement Learning
Realistic domains for learning possess regularities that make it possible to generalize experience across related states. This paper explores an environment-modeling framework tha...

Exponential Family Hybrid Semi-Supervised Learning
We present an approach to semi-supervised learning based on an exponential family characterization. Our approach generalizes previous work on coupled priors for hybrid generative/...

Nearly optimal exploration-exploitation decision thresholds
While in general trading off exploration and exploitation in reinforcement learning is hard, under some formulations relatively simple solutions exist. Optimal decision thresholds ...

Weakly learning DNF and characterizing statistical query learning using Fourier analysis
We present new results on the well-studied problem of learning DNF expressions. We prove that an algorithm due to Kushilevitz and Mansour [13] can be used to weakly learn DNF form...
