Automatic Feature Selection for Model-Based Reinforcement Learning in Factored MDPs
Abstract--Feature selection is an important challenge in machine learning. Unfortunately, most methods for automating feature selection are designed for supervised learning tasks a...

A Minimax Theorem with Applications to Machine Learning, Signal Processing, and Finance
This paper concerns a fractional function of the form xT a/ xT Bx, where B is positive definite. We consider the game of choosing x from a convex set, to maximize the function, an...

Random classification noise defeats all convex potential boosters
A broad class of boosting algorithms can be interpreted as performing coordinate-wise gradient descent to minimize some potential function of the margins of a data set. This class...

Learning Lateral Interactions for Feature Binding and Sensory Segmentation
We present a new approach to the supervised learning of lateral interactions for the competitive layer model (CLM) dynamic feature binding architecture. The method is based on con...

Multiple kernel learning, conic duality, and the SMO algorithm
While classical kernel-based classifiers are based on a single kernel, in practice it is often desirable to base classifiers on combinations of multiple kernels. Lanckriet et al. ...
