A kernel-based causal learning algorithm
We describe a causal learning method, which employs measuring the strength of statistical dependences in terms of the Hilbert-Schmidt norm of kernel-based cross-covariance operato...

Sample compression bounds for decision trees
We propose a formulation of the Decision Tree learning algorithm in the Compression settings and derive tight generalization error bounds. In particular, we propose Sample Compres...

Restricted Boltzmann machines for collaborative filtering
Most of the existing approaches to collaborative filtering cannot handle very large data sets. In this paper we show how a class of two-layer undirected graphical models, called R...

Graph clustering with network structure indices
Graph clustering has become ubiquitous in the study of relational data sets. We examine two simple algorithms: a new graphical adaptation of the k-medoids algorithm and the Girvan...

More efficiency in multiple kernel learning
An efficient and general multiple kernel learning (MKL) algorithm has been recently proposed by Sonnenburg et al. (2006). This approach has opened new perspectives since it makes ...

Reinforcement learning by reward-weighted regression for operational space control
Many robot control problems of practical importance, including operational space control, can be reformulated as immediate reward reinforcement learning problems. However, few of ...

Analyzing feature generation for value-function approximation
We analyze a simple, Bellman-error-based approach to generating basis functions for valuefunction approximation. We show that it generates orthogonal basis functions that provably...

Learning for efficient retrieval of structured data with noisy queries
Increasingly large collections of structured data necessitate the development of efficient, noise-tolerant retrieval tools. In this work, we consider this issue and describe an ap...

Multi-armed bandit problems with dependent arms
We provide a framework to exploit dependencies among arms in multi-armed bandit problems, when the dependencies are in the form of a generative model on clusters of arms. We find ...

Regression on manifolds using kernel dimension reduction
We study the problem of discovering a manifold that best preserves information relevant to a nonlinear regression. Solving this problem involves extending and uniting two threads ...
