A wide variety of machine learning problems can be described as minimizing a regularized risk functional, with different algorithms using different notions of risk and different r...

"Gaussian processes (GPs) provide a principled, practical, probabilistic approach to learning in kernel machines. GPs have received increased attention in the machine-learning...

We consider the problem of multi-task learning, that is, learning multiple related functions. Our approach is based on a hierarchical Bayesian framework, that exploits the equival...
We present a novel Bayesian approach to the problem of value function estimation in continuous state spaces. We define a probabilistic generative model for the value function by i...
