In the multi-armed bandit (MAB) problem there are k distributions associated with the rewards of playing each of k strategies (slot machine arms). The reward distributions are ini...
: Network topology not only tells about tightly-connected “communities,” but also gives cues on more subtle properties of the vertices. We introduce a simple probabilistic late...
We consider the problem of optimality, in a minimax sense, and adaptivity to the margin and to regularity in binary classification. We prove an oracle inequality, under the margin ...
— Most e-learning systems require intervention from a teacher. The development of adaptive hypermedia systems, such as intelligent tutoring systems, aimed to reduce the teachers...
We consider the problem of unsupervised classification of temporal sequences of facial expressions in video. This problem arises in the design of an adaptive visual agent, which m...
