In reinforcement learning, least-squares temporal difference methods (e.g., LSTD and LSPI) are effective, data-efficient techniques for policy evaluation and control with linear v...

We present four new reinforcement learning algorithms based on actor-critic and natural-gradient ideas, and provide their convergence proofs. Actor-critic reinforcement learning m...

This paper considers a recently proposed method for unsupervised learning and dimensionality reduction, locally linear embedding (LLE). LLE computes a compact representation of hi...
Numerous temporal inference tasks such as fault monitoring and anomaly detection exhibit a persistence property: for example, if something breaks, it stays broken until an interve...
