Model-free reinforcement learning as mixture learning
We cast model-free reinforcement learning as the problem of maximizing the likelihood of a probabilistic mixture model via sampling, addressing both the infinite and finite horizo...

U-Likelihood and U-Updating Algorithms: Statistical Inference in Latent Variable Models
Abstract. In this paper we consider latent variable models and introduce a new U-likelihood concept for estimating the distribution over hidden variables. One can derive an estimat...
