Text Categorization with Support Vector Machines. How to Represent Texts in Input Space?
The choice of the kernel function is crucial to most applications of support vector machines. In this paper, however, we show that in the case of text classification, term-frequenc...

Near-Optimal Reinforcement Learning in Polynomial Time
We present new algorithms for reinforcement learning, and prove that they have polynomial bounds on the resources required to achieve near-optimal return in general Markov decisio...

A Sparse Sampling Algorithm for Near-Optimal Planning in Large Markov Decision Processes
An issue that is critical for the application of Markov decision processes MDPs to realistic problems is how the complexity of planning scales with the size of the MDP. In stochas...

A Simple Decomposition Method for Support Vector Machines
The decomposition method is currently one of the major methods for solving support vector machines. An important issue of this method is the selection of working sets. In this pape...
