We face the problem of novelty detection from stream data, that is, the identification of new or unknown situations in an ordered sequence of objects which arrive on-line, at cons...
Machine-learning algorithms are employed in a wide variety of applications to extract useful information from data sets, and many are known to suffer from superlinear increases in ...

This paper presents a new approach to hierarchical reinforcement learning based on the MAXQ decomposition of the value function. The MAXQ decomposition has both a procedural seman...
Kernel-based learning algorithms work by embedding the data into a Euclidean space, and then searching for linear relations among the embedded data points. The embedding is perfor...

We study the notion of learning in an oblivious changing environment. Existing online learning algorithms which minimize regret are shown to converge to the average of all locally...
