Extending Cognitive Architecture with Episodic Memory
In this paper, we explore the hypothesis that episodic memory is a critical component for cognitive architectures that support general intelligence. Episodic memory overlaps with ...

A Reinforcement Learning Algorithm with Polynomial Interaction Complexity for Only-Costly-Observable MDPs
An Unobservable MDP (UMDP) is a POMDP in which there are no observations. An Only-Costly-Observable MDP (OCOMDP) is a POMDP which extends an UMDP by allowing a particular costly a...

Learning Grasp Strategies with Partial Shape Information
We consider the problem of grasping novel objects in cluttered environments. If a full 3-d model of the scene were available, one could use the model to estimate the stability and...

Semi-Supervised Learning with Very Few Labeled Training Examples
In semi-supervised learning, a number of labeled examples are usually required for training an initial weakly useful predictor which is in turn used for exploiting the unlabeled e...
