Bias/variance analysis is a useful tool for investigating the performance of machine learning algorithms. Conventional analysis decomposes loss into errors due to aspects of the le...
In several agent-oriented scenarios in the real world, an autonomous agent that is situated in an unknown environment must learn through a process of trial and error to take actio...
This paper presents a direct reinforcement learning algorithm, called Finite-Element Reinforcement Learning, in the continuous case, i.e. continuous state-space and time. The eval...
We address the consensus-based distributed linear filtering problem, where a discrete time, linear stochastic process is observed by a network of sensors. We assume that the consen...
We introduce an approach to autonomously creating state space abstractions for an online reinforcement learning agent using a relational representation. Our approach uses a tree-b...
