The W-S (Wake-Sleep) algorithm is a simple learning rule for the models with hidden variables. It is shown that this algorithm can be applied to a factor analysis model which is a...
The problem of counting specified combinations of a given set of variables arises in many statistical and data mining applications. To solve this problem, we introduce the PDtree...

This study investigates the effect of update rate on the quality of haptic virtual textures, with the goal to develop a guideline for choosing an optimal update rate for haptic te...
Abstract. We propose a randomized method for general convex optimization problems; namely, the minimization of a linear function over a convex body. The idea is to generate N rando...

In Reinforcement Learning (RL) there has been some experimental evidence that the residual gradient algorithm converges slower than the TD(0) algorithm. In this paper, we use the ...
