The sequence kernel has been shown to be a promising kernel function for learning from sequential data such as speech and DNA. However, it is not scalable to massive datasets due ...

In sequential decision-making problems formulated as Markov decision processes, state-value function approximation using domain features is a critical technique for scaling up the...
Belief propagation (BP) has become widely used for low-level vision problems and various inference techniques have been proposed for loopy graphs. These methods typically rely on a...

We propose a new approach to value function approximation which combines linear temporal difference reinforcement learning with subspace identification. In practical applications...
We investigate the problem of learning a widely-used latent-variable model – the Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) or “topic” model – using distributed computation, where ...
