Scientists use two forms of knowledge in the construction of explanatory models: generalized entities and processes that relate them; and constraints that specify acceptable combi...
Abstract— A distributed online learning framework for support vector machines (SVMs) is presented and analyzed. First, the generic binary classification problem is decomposed in...
We study the effects of various emergent topologies of interaction on the rate of language convergence in a population of communicating agents. The agents generate, parse, and lea...
In this paper, we propose a novel boosted mixture learning (BML) framework for Gaussian mixture HMMs in speech recognition. BML is an incremental method to learn mixture models fo...
Reinforcement learning (RL) can be impractical for many high dimensional problems because of the computational cost of doing stochastic search in large state spaces. We propose a ...
