Transfer functions: hidden possibilities for better neural networks
Abstract. Sigmoidal or radial transfer functions do not guarantee the best generalization nor fast learning of neural networks. Families of parameterized transfer functions provide...

Bootstrapping Rule Induction
Most rule learning systems posit hard decision boundaries for continuous attributes and point estimates of rule accuracy, with no measures of variance, which may seem arbitrary to ...

Hierarchical Topic Models and the Nested Chinese Restaurant Process
We address the problem of learning topic hierarchies from data. The model selection problem in this domain is daunting—which of the large collection of possible trees to use? We...

Estimating Car Insurance Premia: a Case Study in High-Dimensional Data Inference
Estimating insurance premia from data is a difficult regression problem for several reasons: the large number of variables, many of which are discrete, and the very peculiar shape...

Learning state-action basis functions for hierarchical MDPs
This paper introduces a new approach to actionvalue function approximation by learning basis functions from a spectral decomposition of the state-action manifold. This paper exten...
