Mechanism Design via Machine Learning
We use techniques from sample-complexity in machine learning to reduce problems of incentive-compatible mechanism design to standard algorithmic questions, for a wide variety of r...

Core Vector Regression for very large regression problems
In this paper, we extend the recently proposed Core Vector Machine algorithm to the regression setting by generalizing the underlying minimum enclosing ball problem. The resultant...

Noisy K Best-Paths for Approximate Dynamic Programming with Application to Portfolio Optimization
Abstract— We describe a general method to transform a non-Markovian sequential decision problem into a supervised learning problem using a K-bestpaths algorithm. We consider an a...

Robot trajectory optimization using approximate inference
The general stochastic optimal control (SOC) problem in robotics scenarios is often too complex to be solved exactly and in near real time. A classical approximate solution is to ...

Approximation Stability and Boosting
Stability has been explored to study the performance of learning algorithms in recent years and it has been shown that stability is sufficient for generalization and is sufficient ...
