The effectiveness of knowledge transfer using classification algorithms depends on the difference between the distribution that generates the training examples and the one from wh...
—This research aims to enable robots to learn from human teachers. Motivated by human social learning, we believe that a transparent learning process can help guide the human tea...
The present paper motivates the study of mind change complexity for learning minimal models of length-bounded logic programs. It establishes ordinal mind change complexity bounds ...
We present a description of three different algorithms that use background knowledge to improve text classifiers. One uses the background knowledge as an index into the set of tra...
