A theory of learning with similarity functions
Kernel functions have become an extremely popular tool in machine learning, with an attractive theory as well. This theory views a kernel as implicitly mapping data points into a ...

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...

Neural networks organizations to learn complex robotic functions
Abstract. This paper considers the general problem of function estimation with a modular approach of neural computing. We propose to use functionally independent subnetworks to lea...

Learning distance function by coding similarity
We consider the problem of learning a similarity function from a set of positive equivalence constraints, i.e. 'similar' point pairs. We define the similarity in informa...

Maximal width learning of binary functions
This paper concerns learning binary-valued functions defined on IR, and investigates how a particular type of ‘regularity’ of hypotheses can be used to obtain better generali...
