Designing neurophysiology experiments to optimally constrain receptive field models along parametric submanifolds
Sequential optimal design methods hold great promise for improving the efficiency of neurophysiology experiments. However, previous methods for optimal experimental design have in...

Following the Flattened Leader
We analyze the regret, measured in terms of log loss, of the maximum likelihood (ML) sequential prediction strategy. This "follow the leader" strategy also defines one o...

A New Sequential Optimality Condition for Constrained Optimization and Algorithmic Consequences
Necessary first-order sequential optimality conditions provide adequate theoretical tools to justify stopping criteria for nonlinear programming solvers. These conditions are sati...

Efficient Reinforcement Learning in Parameterized Models: Discrete Parameter Case
We consider reinforcement learning in the parameterized setup, where the model is known to belong to a parameterized family of Markov Decision Processes (MDPs). We further impose ...

Nonstationary kernel combination
The power and popularity of kernel methods stem in part from their ability to handle diverse forms of structured inputs, including vectors, graphs and strings. Recently, several m...
