Basis functions derived from an undirected graph connecting nearby samples from a Markov decision process (MDP) have proven useful for approximating value functions. The success o...
We present a comprehensive suite of experimentation on the subject of learning from imbalanced data. When classes are imbalanced, many learning algorithms can suffer from the pers...

The scores returned by support vector machines are often used as a confidence measures in the classification of new examples. However, there is no theoretical argument sustaining ...
Many collective labeling tasks require inference on graphical models where the clique potentials depend only on the number of nodes that get a particular label. We design efficien...
A plausible representation of relational information among entities in dynamic systems such as a living cell or a social community is a stochastic network which is topologically r...
Although each iteration of the popular kMeans clustering heuristic scales well to larger problem sizes, it often requires an unacceptably-high number of iterations to converge to ...
We1 present a new actor-critic learning model in which a Bayesian class of non-parametric critics, using Gaussian process temporal difference learning is used. Such critics model ...
The UCT algorithm learns a value function online using sample-based search. The TD() algorithm can learn a value function offline for the on-policy distribution. We consider three...
Intuitively, learning should be easier when the data points lie on a low-dimensional submanifold of the input space. Recently there has been a growing interest in algorithms that ...
In this work we take a novel view of nonlinear manifold learning. Usually, manifold learning is formulated in terms of finding an embedding or `unrolling' of a manifold into ...
