On step sizes, stochastic shortest paths, and survival probabilities in Reinforcement Learning
Reinforcement Learning (RL) is a simulation-based technique useful in solving Markov decision processes if their transition probabilities are not easily obtainable or if the probl...

Exploiting locality of interactions using a policy-gradient approach in multiagent learning
In this paper, we propose a policy gradient reinforcement learning algorithm to address transition-independent Dec-POMDPs. This approach aims at implicitly exploiting the locality...

Soft-Supervised Learning for Text Classification
We propose a new graph-based semisupervised learning (SSL) algorithm and demonstrate its application to document categorization. Each document is represented by a vertex within a ...

Using and Refining Simplifications: Explanation-Based Learning of Plans in Intractable Domains
This paper describes an explanation-based approach lo learning plans despite a computationally intractable domain theory. In this approach, the system learns an initial plan using...
