Rates of Convergence of Performance Gradient Estimates Using Function Approximation and Bias in Reinforcement Learning
We address two open theoretical questions in Policy Gradient Reinforcement Learning. The first concerns the efficacy of using function approximation to represent the state action ...

ManifoldBoost: stagewise function approximation for fully-, semi- and un-supervised learning
We introduce a boosting framework to solve a classification problem with added manifold and ambient regularization costs. It allows for a natural extension of boosting into both s...
