End-to-end quality of service seen by applications: A statistical learning approach
The focus of this work is on the estimation of quality of service (QoS) parameters seen by an application. Our proposal is based on end-to-end active measurements and statistical ...

Bridging the lexical chasm: statistical approaches to answer-finding
Abstract This paper investigates whether a machine can automatically learn the task of finding, within a large collection of candidate responses, the answers to questions. The lea...

Information-theoretic metric learning
In this paper, we present an information-theoretic approach to learning a Mahalanobis distance function. We formulate the problem as that of minimizing the differential relative e...

The Influence of Reward on the Speed of Reinforcement Learning: An Analysis of Shaping
Shaping can be an effective method for improving the learning rate in reinforcement systems. Previously, shaping has been heuristically motivated and implemented. We provide a for...
