Batch and On-Line Parameter Estimation of Gaussian Mixtures Based on the Joint Entropy
We describe a new iterative method for parameter estimation of Gaussian mixtures. The new method is based on a framework developed by Kivinen and Warmuth for supervised on-line le...

Sparse Inverse Covariance Selection via Alternating Linearization Methods
Gaussian graphical models are of great interest in statistical learning. Because the conditional independencies between different nodes correspond to zero entries in the inverse c...

Symbol Grounding Through Cumulative Learning
Abstract. We suggest that the primary motivation for an agent to construct a symbol-meaning mapping is to solve a task. The meaning space of an agent should be derived from the tas...

Large margin non-linear embedding
It is common in classification methods to first place data in a vector space and then learn decision boundaries. We propose reversing that process: for fixed decision boundaries, ...

Exploiting Multiple Secondary Reinforcers in Policy Gradient Reinforcement Learning
Most formulations of Reinforcement Learning depend on a single reinforcement reward value to guide the search for the optimal policy solution. If observation of this reward is rar...
