Multi-task learning for boosting with application to web search ranking
In this paper we propose a novel algorithm for multi-task learning with boosted decision trees. We learn several different learning tasks with a joint model, explicitly addressing...

Learning Continuous Distributions: Simulations With Field Theoretic Priors
Learning of a smooth but nonparametric probability density can be regularized using methods of Quantum Field Theory. We implement a field theoretic prior numerically, test its eff...

Nested Datatypes
A nested datatype, also known as a non-regular datatype, is a parametrised datatype whose declaration involves different instances of the accompanying type parameters. Nested datat...

The Steering Approach for Multi-Criteria Reinforcement Learning
We consider the problem of learning to attain multiple goals in a dynamic environment, which is initially unknown. In addition, the environment may contain arbitrarily varying ele...
