Compact approximations to Bayesian predictive distributions
We provide a general framework for learning precise, compact, and fast representations of the Bayesian predictive distribution for a model. This framework is based on minimizing t...

Function Approximation With XCS: Hyperellipsoidal Conditions, Recursive Least Squares, and Compaction
An important strength of learning classifier systems (LCSs) lies in the combination of genetic optimization techniques with gradient-based approximation techniques. The chosen app...

Bayesian Poisson regression for crowd counting
Poisson regression models the noisy output of a counting function as a Poisson random variable, with a log-mean parameter that is a linear function of the input vector. In this wo...

Mean Field Variational Approximation for Continuous-Time Bayesian Networks
Continuous-time Bayesian networks is a natural structured representation language for multicomponent stochastic processes that evolve continuously over time. Despite the compact r...

PAC-Bayesian Policy Evaluation for Reinforcement Learning
Bayesian priors offer a compact yet general means of incorporating domain knowledge into many learning tasks. The correctness of the Bayesian analysis and inference, however, lar...
