Evaluation of Topographic Clustering and Its Kernelization
We consider the topographic clustering task and focus on the problem of its evaluation, which enables to perform model selection: topographic clustering algorithms, from the origin...

Self-evaluated Learning Agent in Multiple State Games
Abstract. Most of multi-agent reinforcement learning algorithms aim to converge to a Nash equilibrium, but a Nash equilibrium does not necessarily mean a desirable result. On the o...

Robust k-DNF Learning via Inductive Belief Merging
A central issue in logical concept induction is the prospect of inconsistency. This problem may arise due to noise in the training data, or because the target concept does not fit...
