Evolutionary Algorithms’ (EAs’) application to real world optimization problems often involves expensive fitness function evaluation. Naturally this has a crippling effect on ...
This paper introduces a simple yete ective method for using causal domain knowledge for learning to control dynamic systems. Elementary qualitative causal dependencies of the domai...
We summarize the results of an experimental performance evaluation of using an empirical histogram to approximate the steady-state distribution of the underlying stochastic proces...
Abstract--We give sublinear-time approximation algorithms for some optimization problems arising in machine learning, such as training linear classifiers and finding minimum enclos...

In this paper, we investigate the use of reinforcement learning (RL) techniques to the problem of determining dynamic prices in an electronic retail market. As representative mode...
