Unifying Divergence Minimization and Statistical Inference Via Convex Duality
Abstract. In this paper we unify divergence minimization and statistical inference by means of convex duality. In the process of doing so, we prove that the dual of approximate max...

Statistical Mechanics of Online Learning of Drifting Concepts: A Variational Approach
We review the application of statistical mechanics methods to the study of online learning of a drifting concept in the limit of large systems. The model where a feed-forward netwo...

A PAC Bound for Approximate Support Vector Machines
We study a class of algorithms that speed up the training process of support vector machines (SVMs) by returning an approximate SVM. We focus on algorithms that reduce the size of...

Symmetry in Markov Decision Processes and its Implications for Single Agent and Multiagent Learning
This paper examines the notion of symmetry in Markov decision processes (MDPs). We define symmetry for an MDP and show how it can be exploited for more effective learning in singl...
