Similarity metrics that are learned from labeled training
data can be advantageous in terms of performance
and/or efficiency. These learned metrics can then be used
in conjuncti...
Learning-to-rank algorithms, which can automatically adapt ranking functions in web search, require a large volume of training data. A traditional way of generating training examp...
— Reinforcement learning (RL) algorithms have long been promising methods for enabling an autonomous robot to improve its behavior on sequential decision-making tasks. The obviou...
