This chapter discusses decision making under uncertainty. More specifically, it offers an overview of efficient Bayesian and distribution-free algorithms for making near-optimal se...
Abstract. We investigate the generalization behavior of sequential prediction (online) algorithms, when data are generated from a probability distribution. Using some newly develop...
Discriminative learning techniques for sequential data have proven to be more effective than generative models for named entity recognition, information extraction, and other task...
A new hierarchical nonparametric Bayesian model is proposed for the problem of multitask learning (MTL) with sequential data. Sequential data are typically modeled with a hidden M...
