This paper explores the use of hierarchical structure for classifying a large, heterogeneous collection of web content. The hierarchical structure is initially used to train diffe...
Probabilistic databases hold promise of being a viable means for large-scale uncertainty management, increasingly needed in a number of real world applications domains. However, q...
This paper introduces a new approach to actionvalue function approximation by learning basis functions from a spectral decomposition of the state-action manifold. This paper exten...
This paper introduces an approach to automatic basis function construction for Hierarchical Reinforcement Learning (HRL) tasks. We describe some considerations that arise when con...
Seeking to extend the functional capability of the elderly, we explore the use of probabilistic methods to learn and recognise human activity in order to provide monitoring suppor...
